I have downloaded and re-downloaded Soma from my Humble Bundle, I have used both windows and winzip to extract the files, and when I launch the SOMA.exe I get a warning that says 
"The code execution cannot proceed because VCOMP100.DLL was not found. Reinstalling the program may fix this problem"

 (I also attached a photo of this error popup) Reinstalling the program did NOT fix this problem. PLEASE HELP !!!  Huh 

I got some advice from the humblebundle support telling me to download a certain driver from windows but to contact support for SOMA first to be sure that is the issue.

I did search your page for simillar before posting but I could not find anything.
VCOMP100.dll is a Windows Visual C++ Redistributables package. They may have become corrupted or you just haven't installed it yet.

You must have a 64-bit Operating System to play SOMA. You can make sure you do by going to your C:\ Drive and making sure you can see Program Files and a Program Files (x86) directory there.

Assuming you do, go to Problem A8 of the troubleshooting guide and install the software from those links.

Try to run SOMA after that and see what happens. Smile
