Missing MSVCR71.dll error on Windows 8.1

0

I work with a Windows 8.1(x64). I am a Python student and today I tried to install the pyTTS by UNC Assistive Technology. But, when i tried to install it, the system gave me the error listed in the title of my post above. I tried to install Microsoft Visual C++ 2008 Redistributable Package but nothings changed.

What should I do?

Are you sure the version of the file goes to C++ 2008 redistributiable and not an even earlier version? Be sure you are installing both the 32-bit and 64-bit versions – Ramhound – 2015-07-08T19:43:03.153

Possible fix here Different software but fix should work for any program that throws this error – Moab – 2015-07-08T21:29:32.817

According to wikipedia MS Visual Studio 2003 equals version 7.1. Install the 2003 ~~redistrutable package.

EDIT: There is no 2003 Redistrutable. According to this stackoverflow question, the runtime is included in .Net 1.1.

there is no 2003 redist. The applications have to include it. – magicandre1981 – 2015-07-09T04:18:33.157

Or you can install the NET 1.1 runtime, as I've read. I edited my answer accordingly -thanks for the heads-up. – larkey – 2015-07-09T08:17:36.337
