I get error 0xc000007b when opening Epic Games launcher. I uninstalled and reinstalled the program and I still get the error. I can’t use unreal engine 5 properly because of this. I can’t import any assets and can’t build my lighting in unreal and I’m in the middle of developing a game. It used to launch just fine.

Error 0xc000007b when opening Epic Games Launcher

Hello, I have recently installed the Epic Games Launcher and every time I open it I get a popup with "Application error - The application was unable to start correctly (0xc000007b)". I have tried everything like reinstalling DirectX,
reinstalling .NET core, reinstalling Visual C++ 20xx 64 and 86 bit versions, reinstalling the Epic Games Launcher itself, running in as an administrator, running it in compatibility mode, installing some DLLs in System32 and SysWOW64 Windows files, disabling
Antivirus, and it still does not open. Can I please get some help?

Thanks.

 

Epic Games launcher- 0xc000007b error

I've been having an issue when trying to install Epic Games Launcher. Basically, when I open the Epic Games Installer, the loading screen gets to a certain point where DirectX and Permissions are mentioned, then asks me to allow Epic Online Services to make changes to my computer. If I click yes or no, the answer is the same- it shows the 0xc000007b error and says that the application failed to load. I've tried everything, and the fixes on Youtube are only for an already-installed Epic Games Launcher, so there aren't any fixes for my situation.

Any help would be appreciated.
