Visual C++ 2012 missing mspdb110.dll

Question

I am trying to compile on cmd using cl and it says that I'm missing mspdb110.dll. Anyone know how to fix this?

Edit: I added this file path to PATH C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio 12.0\VC\bin and the file is a standard hello world program

If you are trying to execute cl.exe from the command line, you need several environment variables added/modified. See here for further details: Command line compile using cl.exe?

The version mentioned in that post is VS2010, for VS2012, you should be running 'Developer Command Prompt for VS2012', which will set the variables for you.
