How to Solve: SQL Developer can’t start because MSVCR71.dll is missing (On Windows)


I have installed SQL Developer (with JDK) on Windows first time,I facing the system error bellow when trying to execute it.




We can easily fix this issue by following these simple steps:
  1. Run regedit (remember to run it as the administrator)
  2. Expand HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE
  3. Expand SOFTWARE
  4. Expand Microsoft
  5. Expand Windows
  6. Expand CurrentVersion
  7. Expand App Paths
  8. At App Paths, add a new KEY called sqldeveloper.exe
  9. Expand sqldeveloper.exe
  10. Modify the (DEFAULT) value to the full pathway to the sqldeveloper executable (See example below step 11)
  11. Create a new STRING VALUE called Path and set it value to the sqldeveloper pathway + \jdk\jre\bin




  12. After the step 11 is completed, please enjoy your SQLDEVELOPER
