MSVCR120.dll is a Visual C+ 2013 file.
Usually not so smart to download a dll file from some shady place.
Better to download the installation package for it from Microsoft

NMS needs these Visual C+ versions 2010, 2013, 2022.
These are not included in the Windows installation, so you need to add them afterwards.
Steam can usually do it, but sometimes it messes up, and it usually puts old versions anyway.

Note that there are two versions of each, X86 and X64, install both.

Link to Microsoft VC+ redist download.
https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/cpp/windows/latest-supported-vc-redist

An alternatively download, a package with all the versions available.

You may have a look into your windows Event Viewer for more Info about that crash.
WIN+X will open that windows list, there start the Event Viewer and
expand Windows Logs and look under Application for warnings with a timestamp of that crash.

Copy&Paste the details here, so we can check it

[Musashi]

you can download the missing dll´s here :

i'm sorry don't miss any DLL and the Event Viewer don't give me NOTHING about NMS problem if i start NMS the Event Viewer show me nothing

The error 0xc000007b points at missing dll´s and/or a problem wit Visual C
as already Captain.Jartyk wrote.
Is your Win11 an update from Win10?
If so a clean install of win11 may solve it too,,,

You may google the error 0xc000007b,,

Here is a video which describes it in detail.

Probably there is some problem in the installation of OP windows.
A clean reinstall should fix it.
But there are other ways.

Here an excellent guide on how to repair windows.
Written for win10, but the same applies to win11.

Steam has issues with new installs and updates.

Always Verify Integrity of Game Files after an install and an update. It will save you headaches and time.

Go to NMS page in Steam
Left click the gear icon under the game pic on right side.
Left click Properties.
Left click Verify Integrity of Game Files.

Let it do its thing. Close out Steam and reopen Steam. Then play your game.

NMS specifically requires C++ versions 2010, 2013 and 2022 so make sure you haven't missed those.
