I'm having the same problem with "missing" ucrtbased.dll even though it is present in all the platforms under C:\Program Files (x86)\Windows Kits\10\bin\
I have tried reinstalling the Windows SDK and the Microsoft C++ Build Tools (2015). Here are some related links with no solutions: 1) https://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/25a64cd8-1482-4cc4-9dbb-3a420c7a31be/visual-c-build-tools-doesnt-install-ucrtbaseddll?forum=vssetup - I can't reinstall Visual Studio, because I never installed it, only the aforementioned Build Tools. 2) http://stackoverflow.com/questions/33743493/why-visual-studio-2015-cant-run-exe-file-ucrtbased-dll/41970093 - This one says "This problem is from VS 2015 silently failing to copy ucrtbased.dll (debug) and ucrtbase.dll (release) into the appropriate system folders.." Here is a recent answer that seems to be getting at the root cause of the problem: http://stackoverflow.com/a/35466136/3066295 Which links to this, https://blogs.msdn.microsoft.com/vcblog/2015/03/03/introducing-the-universal-crt/ Which has a comment part way down that says "When debugging on machines that do not have the Windows SDK installed, we would recommend copying the debug Universal CRT (ucrtbased.dll) app-locally with your app, or copying it to the system directory yourself." So the solution seems to be install either the Windows SDK (10 not just 8.1 as I have) or copy the ucrtbased.dll to C:\Windows\System32 -- View this message in context: http://cmake.3232098.n2.nabble.com/CMake-with-VS2015-C-Build-Tools-and-missing-ucrtbased-dll-tp7593931p7595151.html Sent from the CMake mailing list archive at Nabble.com. -- Powered by www.kitware.com Please keep messages on-topic and check the CMake FAQ at: http://www.cmake.org/Wiki/CMake_FAQ Kitware offers various services to support the CMake community.
