How to Fix Msvcr70.dll


Restore from Recycle Bin
1. Close all active programs. Double-click the “Recycle Bin” icon on the Windows desktop.
2. Scroll through the listed of deleted files and folders in the Recycle Bin window until you locate the MSVCR70.dll file.
3. Click the MSVCR70.dll file to highlight it. Click the “Restore this Item” button on the Recycle Bin toolbar. Close the Recycle Bin window and attempt to restart the application that displayed the MSVCR70.dll error.
Reinstall Application
4. Insert the installation CD for the application that produces the MSVCR70.dll error. After the AutoPlay window appears, click the “Install” or “Setup” link. Alternatively, use Windows Explorer to navigate to the folder on your hard drive that contains the “Install” or “Setup” file for the error-causing application, and double-click the file.
5. Accept the License Agreement for the application, and click “Continue” or “Next.” Leave the default installation folder and other parameters in place; follow the remaining prompts to install the program on your PC.
6. Click “Finish” or “Restart” when prompted to complete the installation of the program, and reboot your computer. Once you reinstall the application, Windows registers the MSVCR70.dll file and makes it available to the application.
Windows System File Checker
7. Click the “Start” button and type “Cmd” or “Command” in the “Start” menu search box. Press “Enter” to display the Command Prompt window.
8. Type the “sfc /scannow” command at the prompt. Wait a few seconds for Windows to scan all system files and check them for problems. If Windows determines that the MSVCR70.dll file is corrupt or missing, the operating system replaces the file from an internal back up cache. Depending on the speed of your computer, the scan might take several minutes to complete.
9. Close the Command Prompt window after Windows scans your system and repairs or replaces damaged or missing system files.
10. Launch the application that was displaying the MSVCR70.dll errors.
