The call to LoadLibrary(sos2) failed, Win32 error 0n14001, “This application has failed to start because the application configuration is incorrect. Reinstalling the application may fix this problem.”

Mike Semikin has reported this issue while executing windbg command .load sos2

The call to LoadLibrary(sos2) failed, Win32 error 0n14001
“This application has failed to start because the application configuration is incorrect. Reinstalling the application may fix this problem.”
Please check your debugger configuration and/or network access.

Resolution
This is because visual studio 2008 is used as a development environment for sos2 and CRT is installed in assembly cache(winSxS) folder so dependent dll will be missing

As an immediate workaround, please install visual c++ 2008 runtime redistributable from Microsoft,  download from http://www.microsoft.com/Downloads/details.aspx?familyid=9B2DA534-3E03-4391-8A4D-074B9F2BC1BF&displaylang=en
