Fallout 4 and New vegas won't work on PC gamepass

Hi-

I am also having trouble running Fallout New Vegas and Fallout 4 on PC.

I get two error messages, saying the files MSVCP140.dll and VCRUNTIME140_1.dll cannot be found, and then another error message from Xbox PC saying the game has crashed. This happens with both games.

I updated my computer and the graphics card driver and I reset the store cache. The games won't run in administrator mode.

Any other suggestions? Windows 11, and Xbox store says the games "should play great on this PC".

Hi Syphon47,

Greetings!

Thank you for publishing in Microsoft Community.

We understand that you're experiencing issues with Fallout 4 and Fallout New Vegas Ultimate Edition on PC Game Pass. I'll do my best to assist you with this issue.


Before we proceed with troubleshooting steps, I'd like to ask if its happening to other games that you have on your PC?

Firstly, I would recommend checking if your PC meets the minimum system requirements for both games. You can find the system requirements for Fallout 4 and Fallout New Vegas Ultimate Edition on the official Bethesda website.



If your PC meets the minimum system requirements, then I would suggest trying the following troubleshooting steps:



1. Restart your PC and try launching the games again.



2. Check for any pending Windows updates and install them if available.



3. Make sure that your graphics card drivers are up to date. You can download the latest drivers from the manufacturer's website.



4. Try running the games in compatibility mode. Right-click on the game's shortcut or .exe file, select Properties, go to the Compatibility tab, and check the box for "Run this program in compatibility mode for" and select an earlier version of Windows.



5. Try running the games as an administrator. Right-click on the game's shortcut or .exe file, select Properties, go to the Compatibility tab, and check the box for "Run this program as an administrator."



6. If the issue persists, try resetting the Microsoft Store cache. To do this, press the Windows key + R, type "wsreset.exe" (without quotes), and press Enter. This will reset the Microsoft Store cache.



7. If none of the above steps work, you can try uninstalling and reinstalling the games.



I hope this information help you to resolve the issue. We look forward for your response.

Thank you,
