Mirror's Edge Cataylst will not load. I get this 'MSVCP120.dll' error message:
I have tried reinstalling both the game and Origin, nothing worked. I also tried reinstalling the two 'vcredist_x64' files, still nothing. Many thanks for your help!

Hey @mwr1 can you try installing the most up to date version of VC++ to see if it helps.
You can find the latest version on the Microsoft website: https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/help/2977003/the-latest-supported-visual-c-downloads
You need to install both of the following:
If you get the message that the files are already installed, select Repair instead. It is recommended to run the installer as administrator (right-click the file, select run as admin).

Hi Darko,
Many thanks for the swift reply!
Tried what you advise but no luck, still getting the same message. Any other possible fixes?

The error points to an issue with your VC++ install @mwr1, did you install both versions for both OS?
If so then can you try a clean install of the drivers to see if that helps?

Hi Darko,
Still not working. Thank you very much for your help on this but I will leave the game alone for now and move on to other things...

Hey @mwr1 that error is a system error and not an Origin or game-specific one so you may see this issue elsewhere on your system.
As such it is worth trying to get this fixed.

It looks like the link early does not include vc 12.0 - you should also tell folks to download this link: Latest supported Visual C++ Redistributable downloads | Microsoft Docs

These links download the latest supported en-US Microsoft Visual C++ Redistributable packages for Visual Studio 2013. You can download other versions and languages from Update for Visual C++ 2013 Redistributable Package or from my.visualstudio.com.
