WAMP shows missing MSVCP140.dll when installing

Question

An alert message saying missing MSVCP140.dll files when I tried installing Wamp Server 2.5 on my Windows 7 machine.

I found out that MSVCP140.dll is a runtime support DLLs -> "Visual C++ Redistributable for Visual Studio 2015" file.

However this alert still shows up even after I downloaded from this link and installing it.

I also looked into this link but no luck as well :(

Answer 1

I am currently running Windows 64bit and WAMPServer 64bit. I installed BOTH the 32bit and 64bit msvcp140 runtime via this link before running the wampserver installation. And it worked!

Thanks RiggsFolly!:)
