Where to get missing msvcp70.dll?

J

After I uninstalled a bunch of software, when I run an app it says app
failed because msvcp70.dll was not found.

Re-installing that app does not help. I guess I need to restore the missing
msvcp70.dll. What is the official way to get it?

Some sites offer this file for download but I'm not sure the files are
genuine.

In my system32 folder there is msvcp50.dll, msvcp60.dll, msvcp71.dll, but no
msvcp70.dll. It is not in the recycle bin either :(

Do you have any Office 2007 products installed? You might want to try
searching your entire OS partition. On my Win 7 x64 partition, the only
place I found an instance of msvcp70.dll was in an Office12 subfolder.

You don't mention which version of Windows you are running, but you might
also search your Windows install media for the file.
