You need to download the Microsoft Visual C++ Redistributable, which contains the missing msvcr100.dll file.

32 bit Windows: http://www.microsoft.com/download/en/details.aspx?id=5555
64 bit Windows: http://www.microsoft.com/download/en/details.aspx?id=14632

That said, I have no idea why this is needed all of a sudden.
