Reinstalling the program may fix this problem’   I do not understand this at all, I never needed anything like that dll before, and I have no idea what it is or why the 64bit version would need it, and I also don’t know why  this works fine on my development computer without it and why I need it on my other computers that I have been running the 32bit version of the exact same program on for years.   Any thoughts on this?   Yes , it just seems that libusb relies on MSVCR110.dll. Very likely you have another version on this machine. I googled for MSVCR110.dll, it pointed to me to the MSVCR fro VisualStudio 2012: https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=30679 It happens to me frequently when installing a  product on a customer's computer. Depending on the product you can have to install a different version of the redistributable. On some computers the dll is already there, sometimes not. As far as I know Microsoft now forbids you to include the dll directly in your distribution, you need to use their install program which installs it reliably (I think in C:\Windows\System32) and maybe some other stuff around and in the registry.
