vss sample hardware provider

I've been trying to follow the instructions to install the sample VSS hardware provider that comes with the Windows SDK. I have been able to compile the code successfully with VS2013 for 64bit platform. However when I try to install the provider i get the following error..

Unregistering the existing application.

• Create the catalog object
• Get the Applications collection
• Populate...
• Search for VssSampleProvider application.

Done.

Looking up for COM error code -2146368475 [0x80110425] I could only find that DLL load failed.

Even Viewer logs show a warning saying ... Unable to load DLL c:\vsssampleprovider\VssSampleProvider.dll

Thanks in advance.

Managed to get it working.

1. Using dependency walker identified that MSVCP120.dll and MSVCR120.dll were not being found.
2. Copied these dlls from C:\Windows\System32 to the same folder where the VSSSampleProvider.dll was present.
