    Simply installing Visual C++ 2013 Redistributable package fixed it for me.

        Hi @shweps, the solution of installing msvcp120.dll has already been provided by @hskoglund (11 months ago) and @socrateos (8 months ago). Their solution is better because they point to the official Microsoft installer. I strongly discourage downloading DLLs from unofficial websites.

          I recently downloaded and installed Qt 5.3 and I get an error every time I open Qt Creator that says:
          "winrtrunner.exe - System Error"
          "The program can't start because MSVCP.dll is missing from your computer. Try reinstalling the program to fix this problem."
          Despite this error, the program seems to run fine. I'm searched this problem in a number of forums without luck. I uninstalled Qt 5.3 completely and re-installed it, but I still get the error. When I installed Qt Creator the first time around, I also downloaded a couple libraries (C-Image Library, Eigen Library, and the FLTK library), but shouldn't those have been deleted when I uninstalled Qt? Any help here would be appreciated.

            Hi, as @JKSH says above, don't post links to sites of doubtful quality (I got "This connection is untrusted" when trying to download the "PC Repair Tool").

            Instead please use the official link to Microsoft's redistributable to solve this problem.

                Which version?

                For MSVCP120.dll, install Visual C++ 2013 Redistributable.

                  It works! I had previously installed only 64 bit version of Visual C++ 2013 but now i try to install both of versions (64 and 32 bit) and it works! Thank you.

                      You can find the missing file on the Microsoft link below.

                      https://www.microsoft.com/en-gb/download/details.aspx?id=40784

                      Note: Even though you're running a 64bit OS, you should install both the x64 and x86 versions. Or you can also visit:
