VCRUNTIME140.DLL Error When Running XMR-STAK

How-To fix the VCRUNTIME140.DLL error

The VCRUNTIME140.DLL error seems all too common when mining on Windows 10 computers.  I recently came across it on a system that I manage.  I was trying to install, configure, and run XMR-STAK so we could mine LOKI with it and figured that if it is affecting me, it is probably affecting others.

So here is the fix….

Download and install the Microsoft Visual C++ Redistributable package from here :

And you can now run and install XMR-STAK
