Because of missing component (MSVCR80.dll). What to do?

Have had itunes on computer for several months. Tried to install latest version. Installer indicated was successful. Attempted to open and received error message that itunes would not open because of missing component (MSVCR80.dll). What do I need to do and how?

Click here and follow the instructions. You may need to completely remove and reinstall iTunes and all related components, or run the process multiple times; this won't normally affect its library, but that should be backed up anyway.

I'm trying to download the new version of itunes. durig the install i get a message that I need to verify that I have sufficient privilege. Then I get a message of a Windows error 126 and a missing file MSVCR 80.dll. I've tried everything on the support site and nothing works.

Go to Control Panel > Add or Remove Programs (Win XP) or Programs and Features (later)
Remove all of these items in the following order:
iTunes
Apple Software Update
Apple Mobile Device Support (if this won't uninstall move on to the next item)
Bonjour
Apple Application Support
Reboot, download iTunes, then reinstall, either using an account with administrative rights, or right-clicking the downloaded installer and selecting Run as Administrator.
The uninstall and reinstall process will preserve your iTunes library and settings, but ideally you would back up the library and your other important personal documents and data on a regular basis. See this user tip for a suggested technique.

Some users may need to follow all the steps in whichever of the following support documents applies to their system. These include some additional manual file and folder deletions not mentioned above.

ITunes failed to respond on my PC and gave me an error message to say a component - MSVCR80.dll - was missing. Never happened before and I have hundreds of tunes, playlists, Podcasts etc. in there somewhere. What is this about? Brian Forster

Why do I have a missing file msvcr80.dll all of a sudden?

I just used iTunes the other day and when I tried to open it today there is an error (7) and windows error 126 and a missing file msvcr80.dll.
What is going on?

The continued connection to the Events allows you to continue editing the project, or to use the Event in another project. As long as you are not editing, you do not have to have the external drive connected (but you will have the yellow triangles).
If you delete the events to reclaim space, I think you are basically left with your finished movie and further editing is not possible. (Although you could import your finished movie as an Event and do edits on that.)
Once the Project is done and shared, and you are absolutely, positively sure that you will never have to edit it further (or you are willing to re-import from your source and start over) then you can delete the event files and recover the space.
That's what I think. I am sure others will jump in to correct anything I got wrong.
I would also say that you might get a better experience by playing your finished movies in iTunes rather than through iMovie. Then there will be no possibility of further editing, but you can view your movie through Quicktime.

HT1926 Have the same problem as many other users: tried to update iTunes on Windows 7 today; first message "unable to locate component- MSVCR80.dll was not found" then "iTunes was not installed correctly. Please reinstall iTunes - Error 7 (Windows error 1

I have the same problem as many other users: updated iTunes on Windows 7 on Jan 26, 2014 and iTunes does not open. First message "unable to locate component- MSVCR80.dll was not found" then "iTunes was not installed correctly. Please reinstall iTunes - Error 7 (Windows error 126)". When will Apple fix this? Don’t feel like uninstalling all Apple software and then re-installing it as suggested, as I am on a terribly slow internet connection while travelling in the DR Congo.

MOVED: Windows cannot boot because of missing/corrupt hal.dll! Help!

This topic has been moved to Operating Systems.
Windows cannot boot because of missing/corrupt hal.dll! Help!

Hi,
make sure you have disconnected all non-essential external devices (printers, scanners, external harddisk) prior to installing BootCamp Windows.
Leave only mouse, keyboard and display connected.
Make sure that your XP CD is either retail or OEM/systemBuilder version and not a manufacturer-bundled one.
Also make sure that the CD is 'clean' (no dust, no scratches, etc.).
Use the BootCamp Assistant to revert back to one single OSX volume.
Use OSX Disk Utility to Verify your harddisk and repair permissions.
Retry the XP installation from scratch.
Generally using NTFS is more likely to not getting the 'missing hal.dll' error.

HT201210 update has missing file, msvcr80.dll

Itunes was working fine till Apple requested to update to the latest version. After it updated to 11.1.4 it now complains about missing file MSVCR80.dll and will not start up. Is there an older version still avaiable somewhere that I can back up to.

I read that there are a lot of us having the problem and the cure is the deinstallation and reinstall of the files listed in latter discussion. It works and I am back with Itunes. Thanks for the good info.

After downloading and trying to install the newest version of i tunes on my pc, I got an error message telling me: unable to locate component MSVCR80.dll. Now I can't use the version I had and obviously not the newest version. Any ideas about how to fix ?

Solving MSVCR80 issue and Windows iTunes install issues.
If the above doesn’t do the trick entirely, then use the instructions in the following as it applies to the version of Windows you are using:
HT1925: Removing and Reinstalling iTunes for Windows XP
HT1923: Removing and reinstalling iTunes for Windows Vista, Windows 7, or Windows 8
You may be required to boot into safe mode to complete the folder deletion process.

TS1424 im apparently missing file:MSVCR80.dll to be able to connect with itunes?!

Why do suddenly im missing file MSVCR80.dll, to access itunes???

Click here and follow the instructions. You may need to completely remove and reinstall iTunes and all related components, or run the process multiple times; this won't normally affect its library, but that should be backed up anyway.

Runtime error R6034, itunesHelper.exe and the missing library MSVCR80.dll

I made the mistake of upgrading to the new version of itunes and I appeared the following errors:
- Runtime Error R6034 on ituneshelper.exe
- Library MSVCR80.dll not found
- Error 7 (windows error 126)
I tried to install and uninstall as they say apple forums, I researched on my own restoring records, and review it with MicrosoftFixit which is also a solution to the problem but none of the options mentioned above solves the problem. I'm about to format my pc, but I read it in 3 forums that solution does not help. Lords of apple, what's going on with you? Sorry forgot to mention that since I restored settings to my pc that was 1 month ago and nothing happened.
I have windows XP
250 gb hard disk
1 gb RAM
Thanks

first disable your antivirus (you can re-enable later)
go to start, right click on computer and choose properties - note if you have 64 bit or 32 bit operating system
then make sure all users on the computer are logged off
log into admin user (if yours isn't already one)
then uninstall in this order
itunes
apple software update
apple mobile device support (if it won't go - support.microsoft.com/fixit - skip step 1 and go to step 2 - click install or upgrade software or hardware - then scroll down to the bottom of step 3 and click run now next to Fix problems that programs cannot be installed or uninstalled - basically tell it you want to manually tell it want you wantto do and then choose to uninstall and choose apple mobile device - if it freezes or stops around the end then just quit it and relaunch control panel and the apple mobile device should be gone)
then continue to remove
bonjour
apple application support
then restart computer
click start - left click on computer - double click on c drive
double click on program files
make sure the itunes, ipod, and bonjour folders are gone - if they aren't select them, then right click and delete
if you are on 64 bit
complete the steps for program files and then also do program files x86
if you had to delete any of those folders manually restart again afterwards
for 32bit os - go to www.apple.com/itunes and download new itunes
for 64bit os - support.apple.com/kb/DL1615 and download the 64bit version of itunes for windows
this will resolve any issues related to the update
NOTE - this will not touch your playlists or media files - your songs are not saved in the itunes application itself those are in a different folder in your music folder
