libiomp5md.dll is missing from your computer

I am building for 64-bit with the /Qparallel and the /Qipo options using Intel Fortran Parallel Studio 2013 SP1 Update 3. When I try to run the executable on another Windows 7 x64  machine, I get a message box that says "The program can't start because libiomp5md.dll is missing from your computer. Try reinstalling the program to fix this problem." My link options are set for static libraries. I found this thread from a few years back and tried to use the "/Qopenmp-link:static" compiler option as suggested in the thread, and I then get "ifort: command line remark #10148: option '/Qopenmp-link:static' not supported" messages as the compiler compiles my fortran files. Attached is a screenshot of the original message box.

How do I link this library statically?

Thanks.

As you've seen, there no longer is a static link option for the OpenMP library.  You would need to copy the .dll to the target machine (e.g. to the same folder as the .exe) (or install the redistributable libraries).
