Click on the link below to access this web page "Microsoft Windows* and macOS* Runtime Versions
https://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/developer/articles/tool/compilers-redistributable-libraries-by-version.html
On that page, there is table with different compiler versions. In the section called "Intel® Fortran Compiler Runtime for Windows* (IFX/IFORT)", select the link called:
- 2023.1.0 / 2021.9.0

That will cause an EXE file to be downloaded (theoretically that filename could change over time)
- w_dpcpp_cpp_runtime_p_2023.1.0.46319.exe
Run that EXE and the installer will ask where to install it, the default being a subfolder of your downloads folder, such as
- C:\Users\<usename>\Downloads\Intel\w_dpcpp_cpp_runtime_p_2023.1.0.46319
Then the installation of the library will begin, and you should see a progress screen as it is installed.
And when the installation is complete, you will see this screen. Click the Finish button to complete the installation.

If you have any other problems or questions about the installation, email THERMHelp@lbl.gov or [email protected].
