Download PowerBuilder runtime files

To help developer conveniently get all of the required runtime files, Appeon provides the different versions of runtime files as zip packages on the site: https://www.appeon.com/developers/get-help/knowledgebase-for-pb. You can download the runtime files starting from version 2017 R2. For example, the download link for version 2019 is https://www.appeon.com/developers/get-help/knowledgebase/powerbuilder-runtime-files-2019-2082.html.

Microsoft files

When you deploy the core PowerBuilder runtime files, you must also deploy the msvcr100.dll and msvcp100.dll Microsoft Visual C++ runtime libraries and the Microsoft .NET Active Template Library (ATL) module atl100.dll, if they are not present on the user's computer. The PowerBuilder runtime files have a runtime dependency on these files. See Third-party components and deployment for more information.

Additional runtime files

The following table lists additional runtime files that your application might not require. For example, pbvm190.dll is required for all deployed applications, but pbrtc190.dll and its associated runtime files are required only if your application uses Rich Text controls or RichText DataWindow objects.

For more information about deploying applications that use the pbjvm190.dll for Java support, see Java support.

Localized runtime files

Localized runtime files are provided for French, German, Italian, Spanish, Dutch, Danish, Norwegian, and Swedish. These files are usually available shortly after the general release of a new version of PowerBuilder. The localized runtime files let you deploy PowerBuilder applications with standard runtime dialog boxes in the local language. They handle language-specific data when the application runs.
