OpenCV on Visual Studio 2012, MSVCP120D.dll missing

Question

I've followed an excellent guide from a user on here how to use openCV with VS2012 and everything seems OK until I run the program where I encounter these messages from debug.

'OPENCV_TEST.exe' (Win32): Loaded 'C:\Users\Michael\Documents\Visual Studio 2012\Projects\OPENCV_TEST\x64\Debug\OPENCV_TEST.exe'. Symbols loaded.
'OPENCV_TEST.exe' (Win32): Loaded 'C:\Windows\System32\ntdll.dll'. Cannot find or open the PDB file.
'OPENCV_TEST.exe' (Win32): Loaded 'C:\Windows\System32\kernel32.dll'. Cannot find or open the PDB file.
'OPENCV_TEST.exe' (Win32): Loaded 'C:\Windows\System32\KernelBase.dll'. Cannot find or open the PDB file.
'OPENCV_TEST.exe' (Win32): Loaded 'C:\opencv\build\x64\vc12\bin\opencv_core2410d.dll'. Cannot find or open the PDB file.
The program '[1228] OPENCV_TEST.exe' has exited with code -1073741515 (0xc0000135) 'A dependent dll was not found'.

I'm aware that it seems to be trying to load the .dll files for VS2013 as it's trying to open the vc12 bin, but I've checked my paths and they're all vc11. I'm a complete amateur, so any help is much appreciated.

Answer 1

I assume that you have set Path for OpenCV libraries

Open the Property pages of the solution.

Select Release configuration in Configuration manager

Click on Linker and select Input

edit Additional Dependencies

add the following:

opencv_ts300.lib

opencv_world300.lib

Click Ok and Click Apply and run the code. It should work.
