Failed to install GLKVM app on Windows: "The code execution cannot proceed"¶
When installing the GLKVM app on Windows, an error may occur: "The code execution cannot proceed because VCRUNTIME140_1.dll was not found".
This error occurs due to missing Visual C++ runtime dependencies. The app requires specific DLL files provided by the Visual C++ Redistributable package.
Follow these steps:
-
Download the latest Visual C++ Redistributable for Visual Studio from the official Microsoft website here.
-
Install the package and restart your computer.
Temporarily disable antivirus software as some security tools may block installation files incorrectly.
How do I verify if Visual C++ dependencies are installed correctly?
-
On Windows, go to Control Panel > Programs > Programs and Features.
-
Look for entries like "Microsoft Visual C++ 2015-2022 Redistributable" (x64/x86). If missing, install them via the link above.
-
-
Re-run the GLKVM app installer.
