Hello @Mantha_B2007 

If you are seeing 0xc000007b error, and you are running Windows 10, it might be because Windows 10 disables NET Framework by default.

To enable NET Framework:

  1. Open the Control Panel.
    • Search Control Panel in the Start menu to find it.
  2. Click Uninstall a program under Programs.
  3. Click Turn Windows features on or off.
  4. Click the + next to all of the NET Framework options you see, usually 3.5 and 4.6, and check the boxes.
  5. Reinstall VC++ x64 and x86 for 2010, 2012 and 2013.
