  1. Check your DLLs!! You can use it as admin in CMD: sfc /scannow
  2. And maybe you should update the ancient VC from 2006. :coolwink:

dism /online /cleanup-image /restorehealth

 

 

or perform a repair install

Oh my, I only saw this part now...... :o

 

dism /online /cleanup-image /restorehealth is really the only chance!!

Or hopefully you have a good full backup from before.

Have you tried googling your problem in the first place. try googling this for instance:

 

Exception code: 0xc0000005

 

or simply:

 

 0xc0000005

 

 

Auslogics provide a solution here. You could try it:

Result from Google Search.

 

Yup. Googled for any solution before posting here. Didn't work out any solution.

I had something similar a while ago, no scans fixed the problem even though it said it had found corrupt files and repaired them

 

A fresh install via a disc (Windows 10 installation media) eventually worked (1st re-install failed). remember to back up anything you need

Yes. Reinstalling Windows is now last option left for me.
