The Program can’t start because MSVCR110.dll is missing from your computer. This error message is a very generic. You can face this issue while installing any application on Windows. I was trying to install WordPress with PHP on IIS server. I followed all the necessary steps. still the wordpress installation was not successful. I had to install Visual C++ Redistributable on my server to get the WordPress and PHP work. I installed Visual C++ redistributable on the server but was still not able to install the PHP.

You can encounter this error message on newly installed and configured server. Please follow the under listed steps to solve this problem.

Make sure you are using the correct version and type of Microsoft Visual C++ redistributable. What do I mean by this? If you are trying to install PHP or any program which is 32bit you have to install the 32bit of Visual C++ redistributable otherwise the program will not be installed because the required libraries are missing from the target server. I solved this problem by installing the 32bit version of Visual C++ redistributable on my server and then installed PHP. It worked fine and everything came to normal.

You can follow the listed URL to download the appropirate version of the Visual C++ redistributable.

Visual C++ redistributable

The Visual C++ Redistributable Packages install run time components of Visual C++ libraries that are required to run applications developed using Visual Studio 2012 on a computer that does not have Visual Studio 2012 installed. These packages install run time components of the C Run time (CRT), Standard C++, ATL, MFC, C++ AMP, and OpenMP libraries.

Its pretty simple to download and install it on the target server and get rid of this issue. hope this will solve your problem.
