the program can not be started because MSVCR80D.dll is missing from your computer,try reinstalling the program to fix this issue

when i try to run a application developed in vc++ on windows7,i get popup window saying that"the program can not be started because MSVCR80D.dll is missing from your computer,try reinstalling the program to fix this issue."

I googled it,it says that this DDL may not be present in your system or it has been got corrupted,No开发者_运维问答w i searched this file, i get this file at 20 different folder in win7.

I am not getting which file has been corrupted or if it is missing then where it is mising?

can anybody tell in which folder ,this DDL is missing or might be corrupted?

Thanks in advance. .

You're trying to run a Debug version of your program on a machine which does not have VS installed. The MS*D.dll files are not redistributable - they are installed were VS is installed. If you want to run executables on other machines, compile them as Release. You might still need to deploy some files (depending on how you're linking to the CRT), but that won't be a problem.

Never ever distribute your DEBUG builds to customers. Always distribute Release build.

Yes, of course, in develoment environment having multiple machines, you may share Debug builds to other developers - provided others developers have debugging-tools (like VS) installed on their system along with Debug-binaries of shared DLLs (like MSVCRxx).

Are you using the same computer that compiled the program? If not, you need visual studio redistributable files to run it.

Search the internet for your version of visual studio or visual c++ redist, you'll find it.
