Resolving program startup error due to missing MSVCR120.dll

I noticed an error somehow when launching the HyperTerminal application:

HyperTrm.exe – System Error
The program can’t start because MSVCR120.dll is missing from your computer. Try reinstalling the program.

The cause of the error is not installed Visual C++ for Visual Studio 2013, in my case x86.

To solve the error, download it and install it (depending on how much a bit program, x86 or x64, and download it, you can download and install both)

After installation, the error should not be displayed.
