 * I have 2 WordPress sites on my company’s self-hosted server running Windows Server
   2012 R2 and IIS8. One is old and I didn’t install it. The second is new and up
   to me to install, though I don’t have any experience with this. I tried to re-
   install WordPress for the new one because my install from last week had problems.
   I tried using these directions, which indicate using Windows Platform Installer:
   
   [https://codex.wordpress.org/Installing_on_Microsoft_IIS](https://codex.wordpress.org/Installing_on_Microsoft_IIS)
 * I got to the end of the install process, which involved entering the password
   for the root localhost, which we couldn’t find the other day with my initial 
   install, and there was no option to switch to the user we created for instead.
   I tried going into MySQL workbench to change the password for the root, which
   worked in the workbench, but didn’t work in the install window. I cancelled the
   installation, and it said that the only thing that was changed was PHP was updated
   to the latest version. Could that be what’s messing this up? Or do I need to 
   enter the new password somewhere? Both sites connect to the database using different
   users and passwords than the root. I can’t open the htaccess file in the old 
   site folder and I don’t see anything about passwords in the web.config file.
 * Both the old site (rhinoplastyamerica.com) and the new site (wordpress.doctorplasticsurgery.
   com) are giving 500 errors when you try to load them in the browser.
 * Thank you in advance for your help!

 * In case anyone else has this issue in the future, I want to post the solution.
   I think I downloaded the wrong bit rate so I had to download and install this
   software and it fixed it instantly.

 * I google searched “php-cgi.exe msvcr110.ddl 500 error” to find the solution here:
