The application was unable to start correctly (0xc000007b) in Audition CC. Latest fix? Win7 Prof

Another username, password later, ..., control handed over to Creative Cloud, install Audition.... then
"The application was unable to start correctly (0xc000007b)" in Audition CC. So re-installed. I on't want to spend hours trying to get Adobe software to run. This was my trial application download to see how it worked. ANd it didn't. And there are heaps of posts with complicated advice... ending with - go get a chat support person. And they are not available. aaaaggggghhhhh
I am now worried that installing any other app from CCloud may cause problems on my PC with other Adobe SW.
What is the latest (and hopefully simple) way of getting this program to run?
I don't have ilivid,
I do have: CS5, Win 7 Prof, installed via some Adobe CCloud app that I was told to install and use to manage your CC account,
Grateful for anyone who can wave the magic wand.

Above linked gave this soln:
1. please try to download a dll file from https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B4eWI-NGpmnuTUxPQVIxYThSNlE/edit?usp=sharing
2. The package contains the files msvcr100.dll and msvcr80.dll. Extract the package contents to the following location:
I copied the 2 DLL files to the C:\program files\Adobe\audition cc 2014 folder and it worked. SIMPLE !!!!!! YEH.
Thanks

Message: "The application was unable to start correctly (0xc0000022). Click OK to close." I've tried un/reinstall. IE also fails, Chrome ok.

One or two users have reported this problem before but no-one has found a clear solution. Two days ago all was fine. Now Firefox won't open, error message as above. Oddly it shows as running in the task manager! At the same time I found Internet Explorer is also failing to open. But Chrome is working normally!
I have tried restore points, I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling. Deleting all files in folder. Of course I cannot get to profile as cannot open firefox! I did not recently add any new extensions/add-ons.
I am using Chrome now but really would like not to abandon Firefox after all these years.

Hi iantwebb, sorry to repeat myself, but:
There seem to be a very diverse range of problems that can cause that error, as shown in this Google search:
https://www.google.com/search?q=application+unable+start+correctly+%280xc0000022%29
Since IE won't start either, I suggest posting on Microsoft's support forum since they obviously are much more familiar with the clogs in the plumbing that cause this than we are here.

Media Encoder issue - The application was unable to start correctly (0xc0000022)

I've just installed Adobe Media Encoder CC and upon opening the application I receive this error:
How should I fix this?

This is a Dynamic Link error.
DL is technology linking DVA applications together.
Do you by any chance have mixed versions of DVA application? Like Premiere Pro CC 2014 and AME CC (2013)?
That could possibly cause such issue. You should use matching releases as much as possible.
So if you update one video product (Premiere Pro, AE, Prelude, AME, Audition) you should update all the other ones.
If that's not the case, open up task manager, Force End Dynamic Link task. Then try to launch AME.
If still no help, reboot the system and then try to launch AME.
If still have this issue, hold the shift key then launch AME (This will reset AME preferences).

Hi,
There is not enough information about the problem. For troubleshooting, I recommend you can use Process Monitor to detect whether there's any process failed.
You can download Process Monitor and see how to use it for troubleshooting in below links:
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/939896
http://blogs.technet.com/b/askperf/archive/2007/06/01/troubleshooting-with-process-monitor.aspx
There are a lot of log entries in Process Monitor, you may filter Visual Studio process only(proces = devenv.exe). And you can upload the logs to OneDrive so that we can investigate them.
Also, you can refer to Gfazil's post in
https://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Forums/vstudio/en-US/96035692-9a50-40d4-a7d3-48bda87d11ec/the-application-was-unable-to-start-correctly-0xc000007b-click-ok-to-close-the-application-when?forum=vssetup
Please try the method he mentioned to see whether the problem can occur:
" Replacing the dlls mentioned below from a machine that is working solves the problem:
c:\Windows\SysWOW64\msvcp100.dll
c:\Windows\SysWOW64\msvcp100d.dll
c:\Windows\SysWOW64\msvcr100.dll
c:\Windows\SysWOW64\msvcr100_clr0400.dll

HI
when i am trying to open MSWord following message pop up and i can't open MSword any more:

Please advise

Hi,
Does Word start in Safe Mode?
Press Win key + R, type "winword.exe /safe" in the blank box, press Enter.
If Word can start in Safe Mode, the issue should be related to 3rd-party add-ins, disable the suspicious add-ins to determine which one caused the problem.
You can also try repairing Office from Control Panel -> Programs and Features, check if this helps.

Captivate 6 Errors: Missing file libwinpthread-1.dll and The Application was unable to start correctly (0xc000007b) on Windows 2008 R2

Hi,
I have a problem with Captivate 6 installation on Windows Server 2008 R2. I have 2 different scenarios where I tested but the result is same.
1- I used AMEE (Application Manager Enterprise 3.1) to create the installation Package to deploy through SCCM 2012.
Notice that the current package works fine on Windows7 (x86 & x64) but not on 2008 R2 due to an error after I try to launch Captivate.exe application.
The error states that there's a Missing file: libwinpthread-1.dll and if I copy and made a registration of this .DLL file then it sends another error saying: The Application was unable to start correctly (0xc000007b) so it never let me launch the application.
2- Now if I install the package directly from the Original sources(CD) without creating any AMEE package after completing the installation I still have the same error about the DLL missing file.
Is there any fix or workaround to install Captivate 6 on Win2008 R2 ?
Thanks in advance & kind regards.

Hi Tim,
Uninstalling
KB3045999 works as a workaround like Wastashi said. We too have this problem.
@Karen Hu: Startup repair didn't find anything here and this is probably because the system boots properly but only after a user logs in the "Error: userinit.exe - Application Error : The application was unable to start correctly (0xc0000018)"
appears. Safe mode works however and after I disabled all the startup items and rebooted I could successfully logon once, but this could be coincidence because sometimes after a reboot you can login as pointed out by Tim NL. However a few seconds
after I successfully logged in and saw the desktop, the pc rebooted spontaneously. Any idea what this could be causing? Virus scanner maybe?

Help. Windows 7: The application was unable to start correctly (0xc0150002).

I just got a new computer. Windows 7. Toshiba. Intel 13-3110M Processor. 6GB DDR3 Memory. 1TB 5400rpm Hard Drive. Intel HD Graphics 4000. 2.40 GHz. 64-bit operating system.
I installed CS5 Creative Suite on it (which worked perfectly fine on my two previous computers--Windows 7 and Windows 8). Since then Photoshop and Illustrator have been giving me the same error message. "The application was unable to start correctly (0xc0150002). Click OK to close the application." The programs still open and remain open after pressing okay, but the message comes back every minute or so.
Then, with InDesign, the program won't open at all. It gives me the error message of "Cannot load the PDF.RPLN plug-in. It is dependent on the EPS PAGE ITEM.RPLN plug-in, which failed to load. Please check documentation for the EPS PAGE ITEM.RPLN plug-in." Then InDesign stops responding and closes itself.
I have to live with this computer for two more weeks (and then I go home and can use my old one again/return this current laptop), and I have schoolwork that counts on me being able to use these programs. If anybody could help me, I would be super grateful!
Oh, and I've already tried installing and uninstalling it.

Without system information nobody can say anything. also check the logs in the Event Viewer.

Hi,
First please test if it is caused by third party application. A Clean Boot could help disable all third party applications.
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/331796/en-us
Meanwhile is there any change made before the issue occurs, such as Windows Update, installed any program etc? If there is a restore point before the issue occurs, it may be a quicker solution for this issue.
