[2021] Game showing api-ms-win-crt-runtime-l1-1-0.dll is missing

Hello! I'd first try verifying your game's files (Uplay instructions / Steam instructions).

If this doesn't work, then updating your OS with the Update for Universal C Runtime in Windows may help by replacing the missing .dll.

If this doesn't help, I'd recommend opening a ticket at https://support.ubi.com by logging in, scrolling down, and clicking on Contact Customer Support. Attach your msinfo and dxdiag files to help our technical support agents investigate the issue! Thank you.

Moving this to community support.

Hey donaldregal1,

Thanks for sharing your workaround for this, but please refrain from necro-ing old threads.

Pleased to see this helped and you're back up and running
