vcruntime140.dll 14.0 not compatible with PHP build

I have downloaded PHP 7.4.1 NTS vc15 x86 on a Windows Server 2016 machine. I have also downloaded and installed vc_redist.x86.exe.

When I try and run php-cgi from the command prompt I get the following error:

PHP Warning: 'vcruntime140.dll' 14.0 is not compatible with this PHP build linked with 14.16 in Unknown on line 0

Any ideas on how to resolve this? I guess I could install an older version of PHP from the archives but this doesn't really address the problem.

Turns out PHP 7.4.x requires Microsoft Visual C++ Redistributable for Visual Studio 2019 which can be downloaded here under the heading Other Tools and Frameworks

After xampp update you need to update your Microsoft Visual C++ Redistributable Version following are the links

https://aka.ms/vs/17/release/vc_redist.x86.exe

https://aka.ms/vs/17/release/vc_redist.x64.exe

install it, then your xampp will work like a charm.

hello there i found nice soulution for this without install vc-redist perfect for win7

PHP Warning: 'vcruntime140.dll' 14.0 is not compatible with this PHP build linked with 14.16 in Unknown on line 0

you need first to go to C:\Windows\System32 search for vcruntime140.dll rename it vcruntime140_backup.dll second thing is go to xampp path for example C:\xampp\mysql\bin search for the same file vcruntime140.dll copy & paste into C:\Windows\System32

Congratulation.

PHP for Windows requires Microsoft C and C++ (MSVC) runtime libraries and VCRUNTIME140.dll is the main library. You have an older version than the current PHP version was built with. Update MSVC to the latest version and you will be fine.

I wrote more information about this to the blog https://blog.devsense.com/2022/fix-php-warning-vcruntime140.dll since I've been asked about this multiple times.

If this issue occurs when trying to integrate Command Line Tools into JetBrains PhpStorm 2019.3.x, check out the current status of this PhpStorm issue, and if it's not fixed in the latest version, use the VC runtime copy workaround described here:

Ensure to install MS VC Redist 2017, which has new vcruntime140.dll file, then:

Manually update/replace vcruntime140.dll at C:\Users\UserName\AppData\Local\JetBrains\PhpStorm 2019.x\jbr\bin (if installed local), or C:\Program Files\JetBrains\PhpStorm 2019.x\jbr\bin directory.

When using XAMPP Server on Windows whilst using the Laravel Framework to create a website the console logged an error when running the server "vcruntime140.dll 14.0 not compatible with PHP build".

I found the top answer on this page and installed Microsoft Visual C++ Redistributable for Visual Studio 2019 and when I ran the server again it still retuned an error. I noticed from the error log that after the PHP update PHP was being read directly from the C drive.

If you are using XAMPP Server the easiest fix is to copy the PHP folder located at C:\xampp\php and paste it directly to your C:\ drive.

The best method is to update XAMPP.

if you are using xampp method 1 : download vcruntime14.dll file from (www.dll-files.com) replace the downloaded file in Xammpp\apache\bin

method 2: if you have visual studio 2015 or above installed on you system goto windows\system32 and search for vcruntime14.dll and copy that file and replace it with vcruntime14.dll exists in Xammpp\apache\bin

Since I kept getting this error although vcredist was newly installed, I checked the vcredist files themselves. It turned out that there was an orphan vcredist file in the apache/bin folder which caused the problem.
