MSVCP140-DLL-MISSING — MSVCP140.dll Is Missing or Not Found
MSVCP140.dll is part of the Microsoft Visual C++ 2015-2022 Redistributable — a shared component many different programs and games depend on. This message means that redistributable package isn't installed, or its installation has become damaged, not that anything is wrong with the program itself.
VCRUNTIME140-DLL-MISSING — VCRUNTIME140.dll Was Not Found
The same underlying cause as MSVCP140.dll — this is another file from the Microsoft Visual C++ 2015-2022 Redistributable package, and the fix is identical.
API-MS-WIN-CRT-DLL-MISSING — api-ms-win-crt-runtime-l1-1-0.dll Is Missing
This specific file is part of the Universal C Runtime, closely related to the Visual C++ Redistributable — a shared component many programs depend on. This message means it isn't installed or has become damaged.
D3DX9-DLL-MISSING — d3dx9_43.dll Is Missing
This file is part of DirectX, specifically an older version many games still depend on. This message means that specific DirectX component isn't installed, which is common since it's not always included in the DirectX version Windows ships with by default.
XINPUT1-3-DLL-MISSING — XInput1_3.dll Is Missing
Another DirectX component, specifically the one handling Xbox-style controller input — common with older games that support gamepad input. Like d3dx9_43.dll, it's part of a legacy DirectX runtime not always included by default.
