Upon installation of the IBDR (Infrascale Backup & Disaster Recovery) backup agent and configuration of a DR Image backup job on a Windows system it may fail with the following error message:
"Could not load file or assembly 'AlphaVSS.x64.dll' or one of its dependencies. The specified module could not be found."
Below is an example of the job message log:

Our backup agent requires redistributable Visual C++ runtime library packages to perform a DR Image backup job. The error is the result of Microsoft Visual C++ Redistributable missing from the system.
To resolve, download and install Microsoft Visual C++ Redistributable for Visual Studio from Microsoft's website:
The latest supported Visual C++ downloads
Note: The version (x86 or x64) of this package should be the same as the backup agent. For example, if you installed the x64 version of the backup agent, then install the x64 version of the Microsoft Visual C++ Redistributable.
