Oracle - SQL Developer: msvcr100.dll is missing from your computer

Question

Have installed 11g in Windows 7 (64 bit machine). Since the SQL developer wont work with 64 bit jdk.

Installed the 32 bit jdk1.7.0 and changed the ORACLE_HOME\sqldeveloper\sqldeveloper\bin\sqldeveloper.conf file SetJavaHome point to 32 bit jdk1.7.0.

Again started the SQL developer, but it throws msvcr100.dll missing. Find that the SQL Developer3.x supports at max jdk1.6.X.

Answer 1

These information is specified in ORACLE_HOME\sqldeveloper\releasenotes . So install the jdk1.6 and make the sqldeveloper.conf SetJavaHome point to this.

other workaround is go to jdk1.7.0 installed path jdk1.7.0\jre\bin copy msvcr100.dll and paste it into ORACLE_HOME\sqldeveloper\sqldeveloper\bin and again try start SQL Developer. It will start.

And The file is from

This file was downloaded from: http://www.dll-files.com

If you downloaded it from somewhere else, please let us know: http://www.dll-files.com/contact.php

Installation instructions:

Extract the .dll file from .zip file. We recommend that you extract the .dll to the installation directory of the program that is requesting the .dll.

If that doesn't work, you will have to extract the .dll to your system directory. By default, this is:

C:\Windows\System (Windows 95/98/Me)

C:\WINNT\System32 (Windows NT/2000)

C:\Windows\System32 (Windows XP, Vista, 7, win 8)

If you use a 64-bit version of Windows, you should also place the .dll in C:\Windows\SysWOW64\ Make sure to overwrite any existing files (but make a backup copy of the original file for safety). Reboot your computer.

If the problem still occurs, try the following:

• Open Windows Start menu and select "Run...".
• Type CMD and press Enter (or if you use Windows ME, type COMMAND)).
• Type regsvr32 .dll and press Enter.

Answer 2

Even tho the question is answered I would like to point out that downloading random DLLs from untrusted sources should be avoided.

If you are missing MSVCR100.DLL just install the correct redist for your platform.

32Bit: Microsoft Visual C++ 2010 SP1 Redistributable Package (x86) http://www.microsoft.com/de-de/download/details.aspx?id=8328

64Bit: Microsoft Visual C++ 2010 SP1 Redistributable Package (x64) http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=13523

Answer 3

I have just downloaded latest 4.1.3 version with jdk included - Windows 64-bit with JDK 8 included to my Windows Server 2008 R2 64-bit and faced the same problem. Could not start sqldeveloper.exe, because "msvcr100.dll is missing from your computer".

I did not want to install any additional bloatware, so what I did:

• take msvcr100.dll from original download SQLDeveloper folder sqldeveloper\jdk\jre\bin
• and copy it to Your's oracle installation bin folder, in my case - C:\oraclexe\app\oracle\product\11.2.0\server\bin

SQL developer started!

Answer 4

I got this error while running Oracle JDeveloper.

I have copied the msvcr100.dll file from C:\Windows\System32 to C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.8.0_261\jre\bin. It worked for me. Also check the enviromental varibles settings.

Answer 5

1. Edit (path)\sqldeveloper.sqldeveloper\bin\sqldeveloper.conf with Notepad++ or some other advanced text editor. Don't use Windows Notepad for this.

2. Locate the SetJavaHome variable. Replace "../../jdk" with your regular PC Java source. On mine it was "C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.8.0_73".

   The line looks like this when you're done:

   SetJavaHome C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.8.0_73

3. Save and exit.

Answer 6

The JDK needs msvcr100.dll to either be located in the same directory as sqldeveloper.exe OR already be installed on a Windows machine in a location defined in environment path variable. In testing SQL Developer install on various Windows 7 machines where I have other software installed (not a clean machine), the msvcr100.dll is installed on C: \Windows\system32\msvcr100.dll.

you may get it from sqldeveloper\jdk\jre\bin\msvcr100.dll(refer your installation dir) I was facing the same issue and it worked for me.

Answer 7

For me the solution was to simply upgrade SQL Developer. When work changed over my laptop I copied SQL Developer between machines and I got the above error except for msvcr120.dll. I copied that dll from my old machine but then it needed another and then another. So I downloaded the latest version of SQL developer and the errors went away. It might not solve the issues for everything but I think updating to the latest version should be done before trying any of the other solutions.
