I'm not sure how my 64-bit win 7 home premium laptop is working without all of the Api-ms-win-*.DLL files. Additionally ieshims.dll and dcomp.dll are missing and unregistered. Additionally regsvr32 is complaining that it can't find the DLL files when I give it an exact path to the few I downloaded from the internet.



Also if my topic title is bad, please tell me.

Looks like SFC found and fixed one problem, at least ;)

There are apparently no other system files missing.

What makes you think ieshims.dll and dcomp.dll are missing?

Downloading system files from the internet unless you know the source is good can be hazardous to your computer's health! They are also generally tagged not to run unless you make changes to their properties, or are enclosed in some way.

Because dependency manager listed them as missing for a game I was trying to run. When I looked in the "system" folders and searched for them they were missing from the folders.

ieshims.dll should be found here: C:\Program Files (x86)\Internet Explorer or C:\Program Files\Internet Explorer
dcomp.dll doesn't appear to be part of Windows 7 - and seems to be related to Win8 Apps.

What game are we talking about here?

It's obvious from the developer's response to your query in that thread that he really has no idea what he's doing - and he has the grace to admit it ;)
Unfortunately, I have even less idea :(
I'm going to ask that this thread be moved to a more appropriate section so you may be able to get a better response.
