Windows 10: Error status 0xc000012f - Bad Image

Dell Inspiron is a few months old & came preloaded with Microsoft programs. I'm constantly receiving the following error message, 4 at a time. I don't use Microsoft Teams yet this error is a daily occurrence and have to close 4 error messages each time for everything else to work. What is the fix for this? The computer is only a few months old, very disappointing running into this. Microsoftteams autostarter.exe - Bad ImageC\ProgramFiles\WindowsApps\MicrosoftTeams_23119.303.2080.2726_×64__8we kyb3d8bbwe\VCRUNTIME140dll is either not designed to run on Windows or it contains an error. Try

Bad Image 0xc000012f Error

Hi Matt,

The error code 0xc000012f with the message "Bad Image" appears when the image file that is being used is not in the right format.
We need to do further investigation on your concern. Kindly answer the following questions for clarification:

• Which build of Windows 10 are you using? To know about it, hit
  Start, type Winver and then press
  Enter. You could also press Windows Key + R, type
  Winver into the
  Run dialog and press Enter.
• Have you checked if there's any pending system update that needs to be installed on your computer?
• Can you tell us what troubleshooting steps you have done so far?

Furthermore, we suggest that you perform a
clean boot to your computer to enhance its performance. Clean boot temporarily disables all third party applications as well as all Microsoft non-essential services so only basic drivers will run. This will help us
find any third-party software which could be the cause of this issue.

Looking forward to the requested information and the results of the recommended troubleshooting step.
