Server Version#:1.41.2.9200  
Player Version#:4.140.0  
I have my server on my Widows desktop. Has worked flawlessly. I started getting this message :  
" The code execution cannot proceed because soci\_core.dll was not found. Reinstalling the program may fix this problem."  
The message pops up when Plex is started. It works like it is suppose to. Not sure what prompts the message it is more annoying than anything. The soci\_core.dll is present. I even reloaded plex and still get the pop up message. Any help getting this hiccup resolved would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.
