mkl_intel_thread.dll missing error

Hi,

I am an user of  

Intel® Parallel Studio XE Composer Edition for Fortran with Rogue Wave IMSL 7.0 for Windows*

I am able to compile and generate an executable but when I try to run the executable, I get the error message,"The program can't start because mkl_intel_thread.dll" is missing from your computer. Try reinstalling the program to fix this problem".  I realize that this very dll file is in fact found in "C:\Program Files (x86)\Intel\Composer XE 2015\redist\intel64\mkl" and I see this file.  Where and how do I set the path in VS2015 so that this file is accessed?

Thank you, 

Byung

The MKL DLLs are not added to PATH automatically - you have to do this yourself.

Right click on Computer (on your desktop) and select Properties. Click Advanced system settings. In the new window that appears, click Environment variables.

Under System variables, select Path and click Edit. Click into the Variable value field to remove the selection. Then add to the end of the value:

;%IFORT_COMPILER15%\redist\ia32\mkl;%IFORT_COMPILER15%\redist\intel64\mkl

Click OK, OK, OK.
