This application has failed to start because MSVCR80.dll was not found

Asked By Jamby Menes 0 points N/A Posted on - 12/06/2011

Hello Guys! I hope someone can assist me to solve this simple problem for those experts here. Please help me about this error. I installed Office Enterprise 2007 to my computer. All office programs throw an error when I am trying to run it. Some post suggest that I need to remove Anti virus to my computer, so I removed.

But the error still there and I don’t know why. I also tried to re-install the program but still get this error.

What can I do guys? Please tell me.

Thanks.

Error:

helloconsole.exe – Unable to Locate Component

This application has failed to start because MSVCR80.dll was not found. Re-installing the application may fix this problem.

OK
