Hey guys, I'm absolutely going insane here.

I keep getting two DLL missing errors on both of the BFG games. I Have never had an issue with DLL files before even on games in the same engine, also no issues with EAC either

vcruntime140.dll
msvco140.dll

It says these files are missing and so the game can not start.

However, I double checked and I have the DLL files in my System32 folder. They are installed. attempting to redownload visual studio gives me an error saying that a newer version is already installed. I tried copying over the dll files from my system32 folder but the game wont recognize them and says they are invalidated.

I'm on Windows 10 64bit

Any help appreciated

Direct X seems to have fouled up somehow then... I know this is a necro post but the DXWeb installer might fix it:

Adding to this a full update of C++ might be warrented too:
