Assistance: VCOMP140.DLL missing/borked (RESOLVED)

[SPC (Ret) Filley]

Afternoon everyone,

I've recently run into some issues trying to run XCOM 2 recently. I've gotten failures with "XCOM2.exe - Bad image", and notifications that something is wrong w/ VCOMP140.dll. I've attempted reinstalling C++ Redistributable 2013, with no avail, and at this point have determined that VCOMP140.dll itself may be at fault.

As such, I am hoping that anyone has good/safe suggestions on where to find a download for the file online, or, is able to pass it on so I can get the issue fixed. Any help is appreciated.

Try installing the 2015 version of the C++ redistributable.  Seems to fix some peoples issues with this DLL.
