Solution

1. Issues related to corruption of msvcp140.dll can usually be corrected by installing the Visual C++ Redistributable for Visual Studio 2015. If installing the redistributable itself doesn't work, you can try installing the latest update to it.

2. Completely uninstall and reinstall National Instruments software on the affected machine - this can fix potential software corruption causing issues with the msvcp140.dll, as well as other DLLs.
3. If the above steps do not resolve the issue, it will likely be necessary to reimage the affected computer..
