@5CD203HQCB, Welcome to HP Support Community,

 

Thank you for posting your query; I’m here to help by guiding you through steps to resolve this issue

 

The VC9 runtime issue on an HP Pavilion typically refers to a problem with the Microsoft Visual C++ 2008 Redistributable package. This error can occur when the necessary runtime libraries are missing or corrupted, and applications dependent on these libraries may fail to execute properly.

Steps to Resolve VC9 Runtime Issue:

Download and Install Microsoft Visual C++ 2008 Redistributable:

  • Visit the official Microsoft website or use Windows Update to download the required runtime package.
  • Install the package. Ensure you choose the correct version (x86 for 32-bit systems or x64 for 64-bit systems).

Repair the Existing Installation:

  • If the redistributable is already installed, try repairing the installation via the Control Panel.
  • Go to Control Panel > Programs > Programs and Features, find the Microsoft Visual C++ 2008 Redistributable in the list, right-click, and select 'Repair'.

Check for Windows Updates:

  • Ensure your operating system is up-to-date by checking for Windows updates. This can include updates to system files that might resolve compatibility issues.

Reinstall the Application:

  • Sometimes the issue could be application-specific. Try uninstalling the application facing issues and reinstalling it.

Verify System Requirements:

  • Check the system requirements of the application you are running and ensure all dependencies are installed and updated.

I hope this helps.

Please feel free to reply here if you have any questions or if you need further clarification on any of the steps. 

 

Take care and have a good day.
