Hello,

VCCOMP90.dll is the library for OpenMP, and only visual studio 2008 proffessional or upper edition support openMP. So if you have lower edition, you will not find the VCCOMP90.dll library.

Thanks

I had exactly the same problem.   My Visual Studio is a Team Editon 2008 as a Certified Partner.   I see that WinSxS has x86_microsoft.vc90.openmp ... and amd64_microsoft.vc90.openmp directories which contain vcomp90.dlls (I even see debug version).   I reinstalled vcredis_x86.exe for original and Sp1 (very bad both has the same name).   I still could not run due to VCOMP90.dll cannot be found.  

It turned out that my program was missing #include <omp.h>.  
I was wondering why the manifest does not refer to OpenMP.
After inclusion of omp.h, the manifest now has OpenMP section.  
The compiler should tell me about missing omp.h.

Lesson: OpenMP needs #include <omp.h>.  
Sounds trivial but the compiler never complains with /openmp.

Hello,

Did you try to change from Multi-threaded DLL (/MD) to Multi-threaded Debug (/MTd) when using the Debug mode?
