msvcr71.dll - how to fix the error?

We continue to solve problems of various libraries on your computer without resorting to reinstalling the system.

The msvcr71.dll component, which is important for running most modern programs, is part of one redistributable package from Microsoft. So, this library file, like many others similar to it, belongs to the Visual C++ distribution - the official Microsoft package. As a rule, you can solve the problem by downloading the Visual C++ installation file from the official website (since the problem is quite old, the 2005 release should be enough, but to be sure, you can also install the 2013 release). Don't forget after installation to restart a computer and check if the game or program starts. Most likely, you will finally see the coveted launch. If you encounter new problems emanating from this file, you are welcome to comment!
