C;\Program Files\Common Files\microsoft Shared\Click To Run\VCRUNTIME140.dll " as not found!

It seems that you are encountering an issue with the missing VCRUNTIME140.dll file, which is essential for running applications that depend on the Visual C++ Redistributable. Here are some steps you can take to resolve this issue:

1. Install the Visual C++ Redistributable: You can download and install the Visual C++ Redistributable for Visual Studio from the official Microsoft website. Make sure to choose the version that matches your system architecture (x64 for 64-bit systems).
   • You can find it by searching for "Visual C++ Redistributable" on the Microsoft website.
2. Run the System File Checker (SFC): This tool can help repair missing or corrupted system files. Open Command Prompt as an administrator and run the following command:

      sfc /scannow
   

   This process may take some time, and it will attempt to fix any issues it finds.
3. Check for Windows Updates: Sometimes, missing files can be restored through Windows updates. Go to Settings > Update & Security > Windows Update and check for updates.
4. Reinstall the Application: If the issue persists, try uninstalling and then reinstalling the specific application that is giving you the error.
5. Use DISM Tool: If SFC does not resolve the issue, you can use the Deployment Imaging Service and Management Tool (DISM) to repair the Windows image. Run the following command in an elevated Command Prompt:

      DISM /Online /Cleanup-Image /RestoreHealth
   

After performing these steps, restart your computer and check if the issue is resolved. If you continue to experience problems, you may need to seek further assistance or consider restoring your system to a previous state before the update.
