That certainly helped, but when running the program on a fresh Windows install, I still get the error "The program can't start because vcruntime140.dll is missing from your computer". In my (limited) experience, I think its because it is using msvcrt (which is dynamically linked) instead of libcmt (which is static).
The static MS libs cannot be redistributed by 3rd parties thanks to their license, that's why LDC and DMD only come with MinGW-based import libraries depending on an installed MSVC++ runtime. [DMD works with (default) -m32 because that uses Walter's DigitalMars C runtime.]
