Libre Office can't find MSVCP140_ATOMIC_WAIT.dll

[gordom]

Hello.
I installed the latest version of Libre Office (25.2.0.3) on a Windows 10 64bit computer. The installation went fine.

After starting the program, I get the message “MSVCP140_ATOMIC_WAIT.dll not found”. I reinstalled the program as suggested in the prompt - it did not help.

I couldn’t find this MSVCP140_ATOMIC_WAIT.dll file on my system, so I installed the Latest Microsoft Visual C++ Redistributable package (14.42.34433.0 build) from here (link provided on this Microsoft site). The MSVCP140_ATOMIC_WAIT.dll file was successfully saved to the C:\Windows\SysWOW64\ directory. I have modified environment variable by adding C:\Windows\SysWOW64\ path. No success. I still can’t get LibreOffice to work. Can anyone help?

You installed 32-bit package. From the correct site, but 32-bit. Use the one for 64-bit.

Thanks, Mike. I posted a similar thread yesterday. I checked for responses to my thread, and while there were none, your response to gordom solved my problem. I can use LibreOffice again. Thanks much.

Thank you for bringing this to my attention. I mixed up the packages indeed. After installing the 64bit version, everything works perfectly. mikekaganski thanks a lot for your help.
