Re: Error status 0xc000012f when trying to play battlefield 4 on PC.
I am reading on this error 0xc000012f trying to find a correct fix for it.
This dll is part of Microsoft's C runtime library...... Bingo lol I hope lol
The error, 0xc000012f, can be the result of corruption, infection or hardware failure... My money is on corruption of files in BF4 and or Origin.
Microsoft Visual C++ 2010 Redistributable Package (x64)
64bit:

Sorry I did not see your last post when I did my post let me respond to it now ... I am not liking the blue screen o\f death when D/l BF4 that smells like a windows issue and from what I was reading like i said in my last post that error is a DLL from Microsoft Visual C++ 2010 Redistributable Package . Win 8.1 can be a cow for lack of the word I want to use reg it at times lol.
Dang I wish you had told me you are going to start over as I would have had you remove it all so it was fully gone in the registry.... so you get a fully clean install of Origin and BF4
Reg this ........I did look in the document folder and i did not see a BF4 folder? But is that because i uninstalled? mm No that is strange but its probably due to this error and thats why BF4 cant run ... I think. When you uninstall BF4 that file is not removed it should have still been there.
Reg this ...ssd and optimized the ssd somehow gaining like 20 GB? SSD can be a cow too lol kidding ah ok go to your SSD drive and local Disk properties uncheck allow files on disk to have contents indexed in addition to file properties. Hit Apply and say yes to all and this will free up space for you on the SSD.When done reboot you can also turn off system restore to free up more room. I use system image back up and keep it on a spare external H/D I have. If you need more info how to do all this not a issue just let me know :] The nice thing with ssd and win 8.1 way less settings to do now Win 7 was way more work to keep a SSD safe just my view.
I worked on my BF4 to get it stable and crash free since the game came out I got it fully fixed almost 8 weeks ago lol . You think you got issues ahh man ck this out lol...... Its my full fix
=======================================================================
This is what I would have had you do for a fully clean install of Origin and BF4 had I known lol . Trust me I fully get why you did it :] This list only says BF4 but I would have added origin for you / pull em both same way ...... copy and past from my post......
Now the BF4 part this is what I did after I did all the stuff I just listed above. I wanted this game to work so bad I would not work on the game part of it all until I had zero errors in event viewer lol. I am not a big fan of repair game as it never fixed it for me lol, after all this work I wanted a fully clean install of BF4
CC Cleaner do you know it ? If you dont have it its free and safe and you need it for this next part lol It is a handy tool as well to have on your PC. http://www.piriform.com/ccleaner/download
1- Go to tools in cc cleaner and uninstall BF4
2- Go to my Documents on my C drive and deleted the BF4 folder sitting in there, I have my BF4 installed on H drive but BF4 install still puts the BF4 screen shots and settings on your C drive my documents. And when you un install it stays even in windows add and remove programs. So the point is you want a fully clean install of BF4 delete the BF4 in my documents. Now reboot.
After Reboot
1- Open CC Cleaner again this time your going to registry dont get freaked out lol. All its going to do is remove fragments in the registry from uninstalled programs, It will give your the choice to back up do so if you wish. First time you run it you may have like 80 or more fixes but thats the normal. Empty recycle bin as well cant hurt all traces of BF4 must be gone lol.
2- Reboot
After Reboot
1- Run sfc /scannow just to be sure windows is still good to go. After it is done and if no errors or errors run it again after you reboot. You need 2x No Errors
After Reboot
1- Open CC Cleaner and clean the registry
2- Reboot
Make sure everything is good clean and stable before you install BF4. Reboot after you do each step ! And ya you may have to run them all a few times before its fully clan and stable :/
3-Now D/L BF4 lol but dont pause it or let it get cut off lol I has to be one fully clean install done at one time.Then Reboot
4- After BF4 in installed and you did a Reboot then go to the punk buster site and download Punk Buster then install PB and be sure to add BF4 game to it and check for updates.
