Hi,

You need to install the Bios update to be able to update to Creators update of Windows 10.

Here is link to Bios update for your PC. Download and click on .exe file and follow indications

Hi,

It is part of Visual C++ which is usually installed together with the application which needs it (it can sometimes become corrupted). However you can download and install from Microsoft. First try visual C++ 2015 and see if the message goes away. If not, you can try installing C++ 2010.

Here is link to C++ 2015, download and install the 64-bit version. You might need to also install the 32-bit version if the application which needs it is a 32-bit application.

Visual C++ 2010:

32-bit
