I am unable to start my tax program. I'm getting a system error. It says: "The code execution cannot proceed because mfc140.dll was not found. Reinstalling the program may fix this problem."  

I tried reinstalling the program, but it didn't help. I haven't tried uninstalling and then reinstalling, but I'm afraid if I uninstall I will lose my work. That may not be true, but I don't know and don't want to try until I know. 

I will call customer support tomorrow if I can't fix this today, but was hoping to fix today. Thanks.

That's a Windows System file, do you have any Windows updates waiting to install?

I didn't see anything, but I guess I needed to download the latest Visual Studio Redistributable from Microsoft. No idea what that is, but I asked an AI assistant and it told me what to do. Haha. It is working now. Thank you.
