Game won't launch (Steam)

[Capnbob]

If you check Task Manager, do you see soma.exe show up, even just briefly?

No, it does not. Not even briefly.

If the hpl.log file isn't generating, that means the game isn't running at all. As in, the process doesn't even start. What happens when you try to run the game's executable (either Steam or NoSteam) directly from its steam folder? Does it throw an error message this time?

I just tried running Soma.exe and Soma_noSteam.exe from the Steam folder. The both result in the same error: "The code execution cannot proceed because VCOMP100.DLL was not found. Reinstalling the program may fix this problem."

I'll also point out that I've reinstalled the game a couple times with Steam with no results.

EDIT: I got it working. After seeing the new error, I did some Googling which led me to a different download link for Visual C++ Redistributable for Visual Studio 2015. I downloaded a file from here and the game ran immediately. It seems I was trying to run the wrong .exe before to fix the Visual C++ Redistributable for Visual Studio 2015. Game seems to run fine now. Thanks.
