MSVCRT.DLL has been a standard system compent of Windows since at least Windows 98. Many other system components depend on it. Essentially, MSVCRT.DLL is an "undocumented" part of the Windows API. It's not exactly "endorsed", Microsoft would rather you use it's current compiler and runtime, but it is the standard "official" Windows system C library.
