I can't download origin on my pc without that I cant open the game sims 4

★★★★★ Newbie

I click download origin but in stead it says "The code execution cannot proceed because VCRUNTIME 140.dll was not found. Reinstalling the program may fix this problem" and then it also says The code execution cannot proceed because MSVCP140.dll was not found. Reinstalling the program may fix this problem." Without origin I cant play the Sims 4

Hey @Jasmin22v 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:

  • vcredist_x86_vs2015 (for 32bit Windows version)
  • vcredist_x64_vs2015 (for 64bit Windows version)

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).

Every time I try to install Origin this error code comes up. I've tried reinstalling it multiple times and have restarted my laptop multiple times but the same thing happens. Any ideas on how I can fix this?
