I purchased Paranormal from Desura and I have not been able to open the game and play it yet. Once downloaded and launched I get an error that says "This application has failed to start because MSVCR100.dll was not found. Re-installing the application may fix this problem." Then I get "Built with UDK has stopped working". I've re-installed this game four times now and it is still not working. What can I do to get the game I purchased to work? 

And besides posting on threads like this and poking around the internet I contacted Desura customer support and I got a response asking if I've "tried google". I would just like an answer

Thanks! Justine

You're missing a Microsoft Redistributable file on your machine - this will probably do the trick:
Microsoft.com

Thank you so much! You are the most helpful person I've spoken to about this yet. Now I can play the game :D

Odd that this was not selected already, I have added it to the tools Dependencies for the game. This should not be a problem on for anyone else.
