Windows 10: .DLL error [C:\Windows\SYSTEM32\MSIMG32.dll]

'C:\Windows\SYSTEM32\MSIMG32.dll is either not designated to run on windows or it contains an error. Try installing the program again using the original installation media or contact your system administrator or the software vendor for support. Error status 0xc0000020.'

I keep getting this error, even before I have logged into my personal computer, having no knowledge on computers, the only thing I would think to do was factory reset, which I have done a couple of times now. Ive scoured the internet looking for solutions and a lot of the time, they are for dll issues but not this particular one. i.e they would say to download a malware/antivirus, or atleast perform a scan on the one you already have. But I am unable to run any such program. I can download them fine, and some programs work, however there are some which just do not run at all and result in an error code.

It has only been happening for the past couple of weeks and before I factory reset for the first time, the only program that seemed to be effected was teamspeak. Since I didn't really use it, it didn't really bother me. However, ive since noticed that the error code appears for Task Manager, Administrator* and others.

*One 'fix' said to use the command prompt to run an sfc check. I am unable to make my current user an admin, as when I try to change account type, nothing happens.

Please tell me someone has a fix.

msvcp100.dll and msvcr100.dll in C:\

Hello back TPU!

Yesterday I saw two files(msvcp100.dll and msvcr100.dll) in my C:\ disk folder. What does this mean? I know this two files should be in C:\Windows or C:\Windows\System32 or somewhere in C:\Windows but not in main disk folder. I deleted this files but files appeared again today. Is this a virus or maybe an application? How can I check this?

msvcp100.dll and msvcr100.dll in C:\

they are microsoft visual studio files, leave em alone.

 

Rundll32.dll?

Make sure to use an adminstrative command prompt.

Try this: ICACLS "c:\windows\system32\rundll32.dll" /T /grant Everyone:F or ICACLS c:\windows\system32\rundll32.dll /T /grant Everyone:F
Can't remember if it is with, or without, quotes.

But, why do all this... try FileAssassin by Malwarebytes, if you are trying to delete the files, but be careful, if you delete the Rundll32.dll files your OS may take a cr*p on you.
