TS4.exe - Bad Image / MSVCP120.dll is either not designed to run on Windows or it contains an error.

(I'm only posting this here, because I can't Post a New Topic on The Sims 4 Fixes.)

I haven't played :sims1:TS4 in quite a while, and when I try to come back to it, I get an error code. 

C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM32\MSVCP120.dll is either not designed to run on Windows or it contains an error. Try installing the program again using the original installation media or contact your system administrator or the software vendor for support. Error status 0xc000012f.


How do I fix this? Will I need to reinstall the whole thing?

Hello again,

Have you made sure to install all available Windows updates? Also have a look at the other post here:

Good luck for now!


P.S. in forum sections that contain tutorials/guides, you are not supposed to open support topics, because it would make everything just messy. If you cannot post somewhere, there is (almost) always a good reason for that. All support requests go in the forum sections labelled either as "Downloads Support" or "In-game Support".
