[RAMBO_7aT7]

Trying to launch Battlefield 4 for the first time. Encountered this error:

<invalid license. reason code=missing dll: [msvcp120.dll] error: 0xc1>

Repaired the game. Still getting the same error.

Please help.

Thank you for responding, Barry.

Here are the steps I took but didn't succeed at the end. I have a feeling I'm missing something crucial along the way.

- Downloaded both the x64 and x86 version of the C++ installer.

- Had the "Repair" or "Uninstall" option.

- First, I chose repair, restart my PC, and then tried to launch. No joy!

- After that, I uninstalled>restarted>installed>restarted both the installers. Still no luck

I'm in the same boat, I've seen all of these "fixes" but no luck at all.

Old post I know but maybe I can help someone. Same issue and none of the "fixes" worked so what I found out was the msvcr120.dll error is for a 2013 redist. By defualt mine had 2012 redist instead, so download the the x64 and x86 2013 redist's and replace the 2012 ones with the new ones in the BF4 install folder (C:\Program Files\EA Games\Battlefield 4\__Installer\vc\vc2012Update3\redist). Worked right away for me!
