Had the same problem
Missing MSVCR100.dll & MSCVCP100.dll missing
I Guess you are upgrading from Windows 8.1 like I was.
The message the the above .dll files are missing was driving me insane - my wireless internet stopped working as well as several programs failed to open.
Fed up with this - as we all are.
Found simple solution which has resolved the problem, certainly with my laptop pc. No stupid downloads of .dll files from trusted/untrusted advertisers.
Simple solution to this problem without cost or effort is as follows:
Guess you have uprgaded from a previous version of Windows.
Also guess you had a version of Adovb Reader on youur pc before the update.
Simple solution is to go to Conotrol Panel, access Programs, and uninstall the prior version of Acrobat Reader.
Reboot your PC, the error messages will still appear but ignore them, just click as many times as necessary to
pass them.
Now open a web browser, Firefox, Edge, Internet Explorer, or whatever, then type in Adobe Reader in search box.
When found click in site and Adobe wll recognise and display your pc windows version / operating system and display a DOWNLOAD Button to get the correct version of Reader.
Click the download button and load the correct version of Reader.
I suggest that after downloading, you reboot your pc, and am certain from then on you will not get the error messages occuring. Also that those programs that would not work / open will now do so.
Simple solution to a difficult situation the Microsoft failed to recognize!
Hope this works for you all.

This worked first time :-) Thank you so much
Happy to be of service. I know how difficult it can be to find solutions to problems that company's do not wish to acknowledge as their errors.

2015-08-09T16:24:37+00:00 I followed Dueda's answer since Runtime didn't report anything and the MSVCP100.dll error didn't start until I accepted Windows 10. So far the Visual C++ Redistributable Packages for Visual Studio 2013 seems to be working without the error.
Here's the link to the download;

Thanks Dueda!
