Hello! I see you are having trouble installing Aloha Browser on Windows 10 because it says MSVCP140.dll and VCRUNTIME140.dll are missing. Let’s get this sorted out together.

These missing DLL files (Dynamic Link Libraries) are part of the Microsoft Visual C++ Redistributable package, which many applications need to run properly. When these files are missing, it usually means that this redistributable package isn't installed or is corrupted on your system.

Here’s what you can do step-by-step:

1. Download the Microsoft Visual C++ Redistributable:
- Go to the official Microsoft website and download the latest supported Visual C++ Redistributable for Visual Studio 2015-2022. You can find the installer here:
https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/cpp/windows/latest-supported-vc-redist

2. Run the Installer:
- Once downloaded, run the executable file.
- Choose “Repair” if you see that option, or proceed with a fresh installation.

3. Restart Your PC:
- After the installation completes, restart your computer to ensure all changes take effect.

4. Try Installing Aloha Browser Again:
- Once restarted, attempt the browser installation.

If you still get errors after these steps, please let me know. We can then try a more detailed repair or manually copy the DLL files to their appropriate folders. Also, if you have any antivirus or security software, sometimes they block DLL installations, so temporarily disabling them while installing could help.

Are you able to try this approach?
