Thi","articleSection":"Microsoft Windows","articleBody":"Some Windows 10 users and a few Windows 8 users have reported an error involving Microsoft Visual C ++ Runtime Library. When Windows Explorer is opened, a runtime error occured randomly. This issue is caused by a faulty Visual C++ Runtime Library or certain applications which use the Runtime. To fix this issue, we\u2019ll reinstall Visual C++ Runtime, run Windows updates, root out the culprit applications.\r\n\r\nThis issue is also carried over to Windows 10 Creators Update and many users are also getting the runtime errors on the Creators Update edition of Windows 10.\r\n\r\n\r\nMethod 1: Update Display Driver\r\n\r\n \tHold the Windows Key and Press X and go to Device Manager.\r\n \tLocate Display Adapters and Right Click your Display Adapter.\r\n \tChoose Update Driver\r\n\r\n \tChoose Search Automatically for Updated Driver, if it says that the Best Drivers for your device are already installed then choose the second option Search for updated drivers on Windows Update and click check for updates, if the updates finds new drivers install them else move to Method 2.\r\n\r\n\r\nMethod 2: Rollback \/ Reinstall Display Driver\r\nThis method has worked for a number of people, since Runtime is needed by many other applications and Windows is heavily dependent on it and if it is only causing errors with one or two apps, then it is most likely an incompatiability issue. In this case, i would suggest Rolling Back to the previous version of Display Adapter and if no previous versions are available, then reinstalling an older version from last year to test. You also need to make sure to Stop Windows from automatically updating drivers if this Method works.\r\n\r\nNote: If you rollback the driver, then Windows will not reinstall it. If you Reinstall the driver, Windows Update can reinstall it when it finds a newer verison of the Driver through Windows Update in which case, refer to \"https:\/\/appuals.com\/stop-windows-automatically-installing-outdated-drivers\/\".\r\n\r\n \tHold the Windows Key and Press X\r\n \tChoose Device Manager. Right Click your Display Adapter and Choose the Driver Tab.\r\n \tClick Roll Back, test after each roll back to see which version works for you.\r\n\r\n \tIf none works, then Reinstall the Display Adapter from the Manufacturer's site and disable updates from installing the driver automatically. ^see link above. If the Method 1, and Method 2 troubleshooting fails you can try reinstalling the V C++ Runtime libraries.\r\n\r\nMethod 3: Reinstalling Visual C++ Runtime\r\n\r\n \tPress the Windows Key + R, appwiz.cpl and then press Enter.\r\n \tLocate the Microsoft Visual C++ programs in the list.\r\n \tSelect each entry and then click Uninstall.\r\n \tDownload a fresh copy of Microsoft Visual C++ Runtime from here and then install it.\r\n\r\n\r\nMethod 4: Repairing Visual C++ Runtime\r\n\r\n \tPress the Windows Key + R, appwiz.cpl and then press Enter.\r\n \tBrowse through the list and uninstall all Microsoft Visual C++ Runtimes except 2010 and 2012.\r\n \tLocate Microsoft Visual C++ Runtime 2012 in the list of installed applications.\r\n \tSelect this entry and then click Uninstall\/Repair and it will show options to Repair, Uninstall or Cancel.\r\n \tClick on Repair and allow the process to complete. You\u2019ll be asked to restart your PC. After you restart your PC your problem will be solved.\r\n\r\n\r\nMethod 5: Uninstalling Applications\r\nCertain applications have been reported to cause Visual C++ to crash Explorer. Uninstalling these applications will resolve the issue. You can reinstall these applications later to see if the situation changes.\r\n\r\n \tPress the Windows Key + R, cpl and then press Enter.\r\n \tTry uninstall the following applications which were recorded to have caused issues. Else, try removing the applications you recently installed.\r\n\r\n \tVisual Studio 2013\r\n \tAutoCAD\r\n \tBing Desktop\r\n\r\n\r\n \tReboot your PC and confirm if the issue has been fixed.\r\n\r\nMethod 6: Performing Clean Boot\r\nIn a \"Clean\" Boot only necessary services and applications are loaded. It prevents all third-party applications from loading at startup therefore if there was any conflict between an application and \"Visual C++\" software it should be fixed. In order to initiate a \"Clean\" boot:\r\n\r\n \tLog in to the computer with an Administrator account.\r\n \tPress \u201cWindows\u201d + \u201cR\u201d to open up the \u201cRUN\u201d prompt.\r\n\r\n\r\n \tType in \u201cmsconfig\u201d and press \u201cEnter\u201c.\r\n\r\n\r\n \tClick on the \u201cServices\u201d option and uncheck the \u201cHide all Microsoft Services\u201d button.\r\n\r\n\r\n \tClick on the \u201cDisable All\u201d option and then on \u201cOK\u201c.\r\n\r\n\r\n \tClick on the \u201cStartup\u201d tab and click on the \u201cOpen Task Manager\u201d option.\r\n\r\n\r\n \tClick on the \u201cStartup\u201d button in the task manager.\r\n \tClick on any application in the list that has \u201cEnabled\u201d written next to it and select the \u201cDisable\u201d option.\r\n\r\n\r\n \tRepeat this process for all applications in the list and restart your computer.\r\n \tNow your computer has been booted in the \u201cClean Boot\u201d state.\r\n \tCheck to see if the issue goes away.\r\n \tIf the error is no longer encountered it means that a third party application or service was causing it.\r\n \tStart by enabling one service at a time in the same manner and stop when the error comes back.\r\n \tRe-install the service\/application by enabling which the error comes back or keep it disabled.\r\n\r\nMethod 7: Un-Installing Intel True Key\r\nIt was reported that sometimes Intel's True Key software can interfere with important elements of the operating system and cause this issue. Therefore, in this step, we will be uninstalling it completely from the PC. For that:\r\n\r\n \tPress the \"Windows\" + \"I\" buttons simultaneously.\r\n \tClick on the \"Apps\" option.\r\n\r\n\r\n \tScroll down and click on the \"Intel True Key\" option in the list.\r\n \tSelect the \"uninstall\" button and click on \"yes\" in the warning prompt.\r\n\r\n\r\n \tWait for the software to be uninstalled and check to see if the issue persists.\r\n\r\nMethod 8: Fully removing VC Runtimes and reinstalling them\r\nThis method will show you how to remove VC++ Runtimes properly and then reinstalling them. This will fix any issue you are having with VC runtimes. Follow these steps:-\r\n\r\n \tPress and hold the Windows key then press the \"R\" key to open the Run program.\r\n \tOnce you open the run program type \"Appwiz.cpl\" and press enter.\r\n\r\n\r\n \tThis should open the Windows uninstaller.\r\n \tNow find all the VC++ Redists and uninstall them one by one.\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\nOnce you uninstall all the VC Runtimes use this command to clean up your WinSxS Component store.\r\n\r\n \tPress and hold the Windows key then press the \"X\" key to open the Start Menu.\r\n \tNow click \"PowerShell (Admin)\" or \"Command Prompt (Admin)\"\r\n \tType this command in the Command Prompt and press enter.\r\n\r\nDism.exe \/online \/Cleanup-Image \/StartComponentCleanup\r\n\r\n \tWait for the process to finish and after that restart your computer.\r\n \tAfter restarting your computer head over to this link (here) and download the file.\r\n \tOnce the file is downloaded you will have to unzip the file.\r\n \tAfter unzipping the file you will have the Installers.\r\n \tRight-click on the file named \"install_all.bat\" and click \"Run as administrator\".\r\n\r\n\r\n \tNow, wait for all the VC Runtimes to install (this process is automated).\r\n \tRestart your computer and check to see if the issue persists.\r\n\r\nMethod 9: Running Diagnostics\r\n\r\n \tEnd the current Windows Explorer processes by pressing Ctrl + Shift + Esc and then selecting the Process tab.\r\n \tSearch for Windows Explorer(explorer.exe) from the running applications, right-click on it and click End task.\r\n \tPress the Windows Key + R and type MdSched and click OK.\r\n \tSelect Restart now and check for problems.\r\n \tFollow the wizard to check for and solve any memory issues.\r\n","publisher":"@id":"#Publisher","@type":"Organization","name":"Appuals.com","logo":"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https:\/\/appuals.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/apuals_new_logo_B-1.png","publishingPrinciples":"https:\/\/appuals.com\/about\/#go-to-editorial-guidelines","sameAs":["https:\/\/facebook.com\/appuals","https:\/\/twitter.com\/appuals","https:\/\/www.linkedin.com\/company\/appuals\/","https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/channel\/UCR--2QnA0vYBfqsmSI3pQ9g","https:\/\/www.crunchbase.com\/organization\/appuals"],"author":"@type":"Person","name":"Kamil Anwar","url":"https:\/\/appuals.com\/author\/kamilanwar\/","description":"Kamil is a certified MCITP, CCNA (W), CCNA (S) and a former British Computer Society Member with over 9 years of experience Configuring, Deploying and Managing Switches, Firewalls and Domain Controllers also an old-school still active on FreeNode.","jobTitle":"Systems Analyst","sameAs":["https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/kamilanwar","https:\/\/www.linkedin.com\/in\/kamil-anwar-b60791173\/"],"knowsAbout":["Microsoft, Linux, FreeBSD, Solaris, PC Hardware, Cisco"],"alumniOf":"@type":"Organization","Name":"London Metropolitan University","mainEntityOfPage":"@type":"WebPage","@id":"https:\/\/appuals.com\/fix-microsoft-visual-c-runtime-library-error-in-windows-10\/","breadcrumb":"@id":"#Breadcrumb","image":"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https:\/\/cdn.appuals.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/05\/runtime-error.png","width":1200,"height":199 Facebook Twitter LinkedIn Reddit Share via Email Print ABOUT THE AUTHOR Kamil AnwarSystem Analyst Microsoft Certified Professional Email Facebook LinkedIn Kamil is a certified MCITP, CCNA (W), CCNA (S) and a former British Computer Society Member with over 9 years of experience Configuring, Deploying and Managing Switches, Firewalls and Domain Controllers also an old-school still active on FreeNode.
