Windows client cannot be started (various error codes possible)


If your Windows client won't start at the moment, it is possible that the required Microsoft Visual C++ Redistributable 2015-2022 is not installed on your system. 

Note that there is no single pre-defined error message for this problem; possible error codes include (among others) any one of the following:

  • "0xc0000135"
  • "0x75345900" 
  • "0x75345900"
  • "0x75345900"
  • "0x75345900"
  • "0xc000007b"
  • "MSVCP140.dll missing" or 
  • "api-ms-win-crt-runtime-l1-1-0.dll missing"

To solve this, please do the following:

  1. Download and install the latest Windows Updates (provided you haven't done so yet)
  2. Download and install the Microsoft Visual C++ Redistributable for Visual Studio 2015-2022. You can download  the vc_redist.x64.exe from the following page: https://aka.ms/vs/17/release/vc_redist.x64.exe
