Started popping up on every boot up, when I got back from vacation a couple days ago. Tried about everything that I have read to do with no success. Found this website and thought I would give it a shot.

 

Error is:

Microsoft Visual C++ Runtime Library

This application has requested the Runtime to terminate it in an unusual way.

Please contact the application's support team for more information.

 

Also getting quite a few errors in Event Viewer, not sure if this has anything to do with it as well.

 

Could sure use some wisdom as this computer is only 4 months old.

 

Thanks in advance... Michael

Hello MJP4628 :) ,

 

Mostly, this kinds of error can be caused by two factors:

1.Runtime components of Visual C++ Libraries are missing.
2.Software problem.

If the issue is caused by #1, you can reinstall the Runtime components of Visual C++ Libraries to resolve the problem.

Microsoft Visual C++ 2008 Redistributable Package (x86)

 

If the issue still persists after installing above package, the issue should be a software problem. I suggest you take a clean boot check whether it is a software conflict issue. If not, it is still recommended to address the problem with manufacturer support. Thank you for your understanding.

For your convenience:

 

  • Log on to the computer by using an account that has administrator rights.
  • Click Start, type msconfig.exe in the Start Search box, and then press Enter to start the System Configuration utility.
  • Note If you are prompted for an administrator password or for confirmation, you should type the password or provide confirmation.

On the General tab, click the Selective startup option, and then click to clear the Load startup items check box. (The Use Original Boot.ini check box is unavailable.)

On the Services tab, click to select the Hide all Microsoft services check box, and then click Disable all.

  • Note This step lets Microsoft services continue to run. These services include Networking, Plug and Play, Event Logging, Error Reporting, and other services. If you disable these services, you may permanently delete all restore points. Do not do this if you want to use the System Restore utility together with existing restore points.
  • Click OK, and then click Restart.

 

Note: Clean Boot is a troubleshooting step. If some programs have been disabled, we can re-enable them later. If you see the System Configuration Utility, check the box of "Don't show this message" and then click "OK".

Please monitor the system in the Clean Boot environment. If the problem does not occur, it indicates that the problem is related to one application or service we have disabled. You may use the MSCONFIG tool again to re-enable the disabled item one by one to find out the culprit.

Hope it helps.

Thank you so much for your help and replying. I did what you asked and the same message is still showing up. T

 

The only thing I did not do in your message is "If you see the System Configuration Utility, check the box of "Don't show this message" and then click "OK"."

 

Any other ideas?

 

Thanks again...

I was told by a Tech over the phone where I purchased machine that is is possible it may be a virus or malware issue. Had McAfee on my computer at the time, have been told since by a few people to definitely look into a better product. I have since removed. To be honest, I have no idea what the issue is and why this happen. Just would like to have my computer back to not issues. Will post or copy over when someone helps me with that as well.

 

 

Thanks again.
