Computing on Demand PC News & Reviews
I run a lot of different software packages on my bench system to perform analysis on hardware. Because of this, I run into a lot of software issues that many of you face or will face. Typically, the fixes are easy and not do difficult to find. Recently, I received an error stating “The program can’t start because MSVCR71.DLL is missing from your computer. Try reinstalling the program to fix this problem.” Well, here is the confusing part, MSVCR71.dll is supposed to be part of Microsoft’s Visual C++ Package and it seems like they just left it out!
To fix this issue in Windows 7 64 Bit:
- download the MSVCR71.dll here: msvcr71
- Move it into C:\Windows\SysWOW64
To fix this issue in Windows 7 32 Bit:
- download the MSVCR71.dll here: msvcr71
- Move it into C:\Windows\System32
Have Fun!
Works for me and my problem whit Far Cry 1 in Win7 64bits. Thanks!
MSVCR71.dll should be distributed with Visual-C++ 2003 (which was version 7.1 of the compiler). If you haven't installed Visual-C++ 2003 or its redistributable package, you won't have that .dll.
Yes, we had installed C++ 2008 – not 2003. Perhaps they should have included it beyond 2003.
No! It is DotNetFx1.1
