    Hi all, I've created a release version of an application which uses MFC and when deployed on my test machine I get the error: "The dynamic link library MSVC60.dll could not be found in the specified path ...." I know what the error means, but why in the heck is it looking for this file? I thought the release build was independent of the Visual Studio dlls. What do I need to do in order to correct this problem?

        What's really strange though is that I've been using dynamic linking all along, and have had no problems what-so-ever. Strange. I'll try a static build for kicks.

          use the visual studio installer, and include msvc60 as a merge module, that should solve your problem right there. hey

            The debug DLL (MSVC60D.DLL) may be installed but not the non-debug DLL.
