Freezes when I click the play button
-
So whenever I try to click play in the Plutonium launcher it just freezes for about 10-20 seconds and then crashes, it keeps going on everytime, I've tried even redownloading the game and I try to uninstall plutonium but I can't since once you install plutonium i think you cant uninstall it. Thanks for reading

@Marco1290 MSVP140.dll is a DLL from Microsoft you're missing, it is essential to play the client.
https://aka.ms/vs/16/release/vc_redist.x86.exe
https://aka.ms/vs/16/release/vc_redist.x64.exePlease install BOTH. You need the x86 variant for x86 applications (the game) and the x64 variant for x64 applications (the launcher). Links were obtained from https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/help/2977003/the-latest-supported-visual-c-downloads
this is what you are missing

It keeps on freezing do i have to reinstall the game?

no you are missing crucial runtimes for the launcher

Windows 10 home. I installed everything and it keeps freezing while trying to launch already reinstalled the game again

@Marco1290 there's a very high chance that is the cause yes. There was never anything wrong with your installation in the first place.
