Unable to launch Creo Elements / Direct Modeling Express 8.0

[DB_2243929]

I have a brand-new HP laptop running Windows 10 and I just downloaded and installed Creo Elements / Direct Modeling Express 8.0.

When I tried to launch it, I immediately got this error:

```

The code execution cannot proceed because mfc140u.dll was not found. Reinstalling the program may fix this problem.

```

I tried reinstalling but the problem remains.

My solution:

1. Download a "mfc140u.dll"

2. Put it into:  "...\Direct Modeling Express 8.0\binx64"

3. Then update: ".net framework"

Thanks. That worked perfectly.
