No compatible video playback module Premiere CC 2017

After finally reinstalling the Visual Studio C++ Redistributable files, Premiere is finally able to run on my laptop. A detailed description of how to go about this process (on a 64-bit system) is as follows:

1. Under control panel > Programs and Features, uninstall every program that starts with "Microsoft Visual C++ Redistributable."
2. To gain access to the Visual Studio C++ Redistributable files from Microsoft (guaranteed to work), create a VisualStudio Account and subscribe to Visual Studio Dev Essentials. It's free, and it'll provide you access to the downloads you need.
3. Go to the "Downloads" tab and search each of the following items. You will need to download and install each of these individually as they have the same file names:
   • Visual C++ 2005 SP1 Redistributable (x86)
   • Visual C++ 2005 SP1 Redistributable (x64)
   • Visual C++ 2008 SP1 Redistributable (x86)
   • Visual C++ 2008 SP1 Redistributable (x64)
   • Visual C++ 2010 SP1 Redistributable (x86)
   • Visual C++ 2010 SP1 Redistributable (x64)
   • Visual C++ 2012 Update 4 Redistributable (x86)
   • Visual C++ 2012 Update 4 Redistributable (x64)
   • Visual C++ 2013 Redistributable (x86)
   • Visual C++ 2013 Redistributable (x64)
   • Visual C++ 2017 Redistributable (x86)
   • Visual C++ 2017 Redistributable (x64)
   • If you are operating on a 32-bit system, then only install the x64 versions. 64-bit systems require both the x86 and x64 versions.
4. After double checking that all redistributables are installed (compare those installed in "Programs and Features" to the above list), restart your computer.
5. Open Premiere-- if you receive an error message upon startup, such as "the program can't start because MSVCR130.dll is missing from your computer," this means that you are lacking a redistributable, which in this example are the 2013 ones as indicated by the 13 in the file name.

The following websites were the ones I initially obtained guidance from, however the links in the Autodesk site are broken for a few of the downloads (hence the need for a VisualStudio Account):

• How to remove and reinstall Microsoft Visual C++ Runtime Libraries | AutoCAD | Autodesk Knowledge Network
• The Program can't start because MSVCR110.dll is missing from your - Microsoft Community

Other users have also reported that using an installer from Majorgeeks is an efficient way to go about this installation. Best of luck!
