msvcp140.dll not found

[space_taco15]

This does not show up for me. I get this instead with no repair option. Is there something else I have to do first?

@space_taco15  Check the box to agree to the terms and conditions, and then you should be able to install.

x86 fixed this for me

@Rmkrmk123 Install both x32 and x64 Visual Studio C++ 2015 Runtime. If you cant install because an error saying that exiting versions currently installed. Open Control Panel, and uninstall all runtimes except 2015 x86 and 2015 x64

worked for origin, got my origin working

That's right. Installing only the 64 bit version won't do it.

Thanks, It worked for me...

@sammislamajamma I had been trying for about 2 hours and nothing worked. I tried to install that VCRUNTIME140.dll files into mySysWOW64 folder but it just said that it couldnt work because it already existed. AFter 2 very frustrating hours, I went into my installing and deinstalling panel and looked for Microsoft visual C++ 2015-2019 and in "modify" tried repairing it. I did this with the 2015-2019, the 2015 and the 2013 and it worked. Hope I can save you a lot of time

@Saramendo23 Where is the installing/deinstalling panel? This is so frustrating as getting same message as you and everything installed..
