Friends can't open my games

Hello guys, I need help on this, I've been trying for months to share my games with my friends but when they open the .exe they always get errors. I tried copying and pasting the sfml libs with the exe, but still noting, what should I do?

here is the error that appears when they try to open the .exe, it is italian, I'll translate it to you:
The execution of the code cannot proceed because MSVCP140D.dll has not been found. To solve the problem, try to reinstall the program.

They need to download and install the Visual C++ Redistributable:

(pick the one matching your version of Visual Studio)

I edited the program with visual studio 2017, I made my friend download the x86 for visual studio 2017 and it didn't work, then I made him install the x64 and it didn't work too... I don't know what's the problem

As far as I remember, the redistributables don't include the debug versions. But don't distribute debug builds of your game anyway

Select "Release" in Visual Studio when you build your game, not "Debug". And optionally, learn about the differences between these configurations
