@Dawid614, Hello and welcome to the HP Support Community!

 

Thanks for posting your question. I'm here to help you get things back on track.

The 0xc000007b error typically appears when there's a conflict between 32-bit and 64-bit applications or missing/corrupted system files. Let's walk through some steps to resolve this issue on your laptop:

Restart Your Laptop

Sometimes a simple restart can fix temporary glitches.

Run the Application as Administrator

Right-click the app that shows the error → Select "Run as administrator".

Install/Reinstall Microsoft Visual C++ Redistributables

Corrupted or missing Visual C++ libraries are a common cause.

  • Visit the official Microsoft page:
    Download Visual C++ Redistributables

Install both the x86 and x64 versions for your Windows version.

Update .NET Framework

Make sure your system has the latest .NET Framework.

  • Download from Microsoft:
    Download .NET Framework

Check for Windows Updates

Go to Settings > Update & Security > Windows Update and install all available updates.

Run System File Checker (SFC)

This will scan and fix corrupted system files.

  • Open Command Prompt as Administrator
  • Type: sfc /scannow
  • Press Enter and wait for the scan to complete.

Reinstall the Problematic Application

If the error occurs with a specific app, uninstall it completely and reinstall the latest version compatible with your system.

Use HP Support Assistant
