I have downloaded PHP 7.4.1 NTS vc15 x86 on a windows server 2016 machine. I also downloaded and installed vc_redist.x86.exe.

When I try and run php-cgi from the command prompt I get the following error:

PHP Warning: 'vcruntime140.dll' 14.0 is not compatible with this PHP build linked with 14.16 in Unknown on line 0

Any ideas on how to resolve this? I guess I could install an older version of PHP from the archives but this doesn't really address the problem.

Turns out PHP 7.4.x requires Microsoft Visual C++ Redistributable for Visual Studio 2019 which can be downloaded here under the heading Other Tools and Frameworks
