Skyrim SE Windows 10 0xc00007b

[Otto von Bismarck]

I finally got the infamous 0xc00007b error myself trying to start Skyrim SE. I just downloaded the game. I also already reinstalled it, that didn't help. Also did I completely uninstalled and reinstalled all Microsoft Redistributable Versions. Still, I got the error. I read about the Dependency Walker, I tried it myself, although I don't really understand where the problem could be. Here is the result of running the Dependency Walker x32-version:

In case it matters, here is the result if I use the x64-version:

I had problems with DLLs and redis with other games before, so maybe I messed something up there and now it's coming back at me. I'm grateful for any help!

0xc00007b has been ID as VC++ corruption.

https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/topic/the-latest-supported-visual-c-downloads-2647da03-1eea-4433-9aff-95f26a218cc0

Visual Studio 2015, 2017 and 2019
Download the Microsoft Visual C++ Redistributable for Visual Studio 2015, 2017 and 2019. The following updates are the latest supported Visual C++ redistributable packages for Visual Studio 2015, 2017 and 2019. Included is a baseline version of the Universal C Runtime see MSDN for details.

Try the first 2 on 64bit you need both.
x86: vc_redist.x86.exe
x64: vc_redist.x64.exe
----------------------------------------
ARM64: vc_redist.arm64.exe


Lets see if thats enough. with only Visual Studio 2015, 2017 and 2019

Thank you for your quick answer! Sadly it didn't help. I completely uninstalled all Redis I had on my PC, restarted my machine, installed the x86, the x64 and the arm64, restarted again, and it still didn't work. Any other ideas?

this was a cross search last time 0xc00007b with another steam user , and found solution on Origin and user got its game to work again. so ofc i accect that as first ID or VC++ issue before that it was all diffrent no point on something


did you reboot after this is just a check. so MS OS dont have correct it ( see it as old most reboot after apply even it dont say so. )

dont forget we have seen no other ID then VC++ issue.


ps.
Try old tech ways unintstall them and then ass Repair it instead.
do it on Both x86 & x64


feel free to contact own Bethesda, its actual games devs job whats going on with thirdpart app they using, same can be said with steam support with common steam redistibutable files.
and one of them including MS visual studio is the culprint.

and it make sense why user have hard to ID what that code cover.
im just a user like you, check other games might be wish from saem release era and hope you can get more crash issue with game. because if you dont, all this will be seen as user faulth. yeap its hard words , but dont forget 1 billion steam user and yuor feel alone right now,
then under 100 steam user this is not even a minor issue.
this is my point it seem to work for all other except 1 or 2 every month or so.


dont have forgot the i have game requirements or installed graphic card . even that will trigger that code if your pc cant handle it.

even that is also seen with this bug code.

i bet oldrim is working.
dont feel shame if thats the case , even that will help all helpers here tell it as it is.
because with no information from user and you also help all other next time.

its sign off user pc cant do it. ( even this make sense , then through a piece of code at ppl face noone knows what stand for.) we dont have MS code book or app that complain over it.

[Iceira]

system spec is needed steam systeminformation copy/paste

[Iceira]

ohh dont forget Graphic card Driver update can reset setup, so it use IGRP or CPU as mistake and not the Dedicateded GPU, even that could explan why MS VC++ cant run on lesser or wrong GPU, or user have HDMI into wrong expansion slot back at pc, all things goes here, even that is seen before.

check up on all GPU Related issue, ask again if you dont understand what i write , i bet other Helper here has a idea what im trying to say.

[Iceira]

dont forget skyrim has own game launcher with what GPU card it use.

[Otto von Bismarck]

I updated my GPU drivers. Also I am pretty sure Skyrim recognizes my graphics card as it automatically set the graphics to very high. I already played this game years ago with this setup so my PC is easily able to launch this game. Funny that you mention Origin as the earlier problems I talked about were actually caused by Origins. So it is very likely that this caused some problems I can't resolve at the moment. Most likely the best idea would be to reset my entire system. That is something that I will try out later.

I wonder...since you've had similar issues with other games it might be time to focus on Windows itself, so in command prompt run (without the quotes and with the caps): "SFC /scannow"

There's also the following if SFC returns without any answers: "DISM /Online /Cleanup-Image /CheckHealth"

And, just because command prompt freaks out some people, neither of these can damage anything - they are basically diagnostic tools. These might point you into a better direction if there is a deeper WIn10 related issue and some of those Win10 can fix itself. If you decide to reinstall Windows this might give you an idea of where things went pearshaped.

Edit: Oh and to get to Command Prompt, the fastest way is just to search for "cmd" in the taskbar and run it as administrator.

I need to check mine. I wasn't even born then...time travel...is real...

Number of Monitors: 2
Number of Logical Video Cards: 2 <------ 2 cards or another IGPU )
No SLI or Crossfire Detected <---- have you update GPU driver that disable its croosfire

i did not say it is a issue, try ruleout its not that, might help you better,
1 monitor + what is other card or combi card maybe ?.

dont forget , seen odd multi monitor issue before , and somtimes its old ways that can be a issue.
point is check with 1 Monitor only , and whatever that is 2 GPU card you have ?

[Iceira]

i also notice missing BIOS info or steam dont show and tell correctly , that board support or Brand name pc support what BIOS is update or not.

in the old days this was know as factory bios
and most of them requre update for all later bugs they discover. ( or support for new hardware )

[Iceira]

edit in post 12 about 2 card issue

i had same issue with my 2 sli nvidia card on every update it turn off sli. from the past
but i never get 0xc00007b just laggy game

[Iceira]

another skyrim forum things do not have steam or skyrim with compatible mode set , or something about game wont launch.

this was to oldrim , some of use out of the blue got issue with game and later it bite our butt with them on.
