Oracle InstantClient error

The setup routines for the Oracle ODBC client in instantclient64_12_1 could not be loaded. System error code 126: The denoted module was not found. (C:\Program Files\Oracle\instantclient64_12_1\SQLORAS32.DLL).


Download and install the Microsoft Visual C++ 2010 Redistributable Package:

The problem is not with the SQLORA dlls, but the modules that those ddls refer to (missing from a default Windows installation).
