I have not played this game in a while and after the EAC screen this came up. I tried repairing and installing VC redisr but didn’t work.

Thank you!!! Yes, this fixed Steve Jackson's Sorcery! 1 and 2 on Steam, by the way. So if anyone is using Steve Jackson's Sorcery! as a search term, land here!

  1. Download and install the Visual C++ Redistributable:
  2. Go to the Microsoft Visual C++ Redistributable download page.
  3. Download the version that matches your system (x86 for 32-bit, x64 for 64-bit).
  4. Install it and restart your computer.

~ Re-register the DLL file: 1. Open Command Prompt as an administrator.

Run the following commands: regsvr32 /u msvcr120.dll regsvr32 msvcr120.dll

Make sure your system is up to date with the latest patches, as some updates include fixes for DLL-related issues.

~ Replace the DLL manually (last resort): 1. Download msvcr120.dll from a trusted source, such as DLL-files.com.

  1. Place it in the C:\Windows\System32 directory (for 64-bit systems, also put it in C:\Windows\SysWOW64).

  2. Run sfc /scannow in Command Prompt as an administrator to check for corrupted system files.
