Okay, I have probably found the culprit:
I have VCRUNTIME140.dll in my windows\system32 folder. Nonetheless OldCoder's program throws a missing VCRUNTIME140
D.dll error (see that litthe D?).
VCRUNTIME140D.dll is the debug version of VCRUNTIME140.dll, and it is not redistributable, that's why it is missing from my system.
Possible solutions:
@ OldCoder would it be possible for you to compile your executable with release settings?
If not, I will try and install a basic version of Visual Studio, to see if it registers on my computer the DLL(s) required by your exe.
