Asked By Paul J Clark 0 points N/A Posted on - 08/27/2014

Hello there,

I just installed Winamp on my PC and when I want to open the program this error appears on my desktop and after I click the OK button the program closes. Any solution ? Why Winamp is not working on my PC ?

Thank you !

Microsoft Visual C++ Runtime Library

Runtime Error!

Program C:toolsWinampwinamp.exe

This application has requested the Runtime to terminate it in an unusual way.

Please contact the application’s support team for more information.

Winamp cannot be opened after installation

Hello,

This is very common problem with a very simple solution. This error is occurring because you do not have Visual C++ library installed or may not properly installed. You can fix it by reinstalling / downloading  the whole package from Microsoft Download Center. Look out for the "Microsoft Visual C++ 2010 Redistributable Package" compatible to your operating system. This is a very important component for winamp. Now try to reinstall the winamp. I am sure you will have your luck with you this time.
