I recently installed MiKTeX 2.9 on Windows 7 (64-bit; single-user installation), but shortly after I installed it, the Package Manager stopped opening. When I try to open it, I get the following error message:
The program can't start because MSVCP120.dll is missing from your computer. Try reinstalling the program to fix this problem.
(When I try to open "Settings", I get the same message. The updater opens correctly.)
When I look at the MiKTeX binaries folder, I find msvcp100.dll
and msvcr100.dll
, but not msvcp120.dll
. Where can I find the correct version of this file?

According to another site, the missing dll is part of the MS Visual C++ 2013 redistributable. Free from Microsoft: http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=40784 Try it and let us know.
