Audition showing dxcore.dll error and won't open after update on 6/17/26

Audition updated today and now won’t open at all.  Windows 10. CC & Audition have been uninstalled & reinstalled multiple times.  We’ve also run all recommended checks & scans.

    The code execution cannot proceed because dsxcore.dll was not found. Reinstalling the program may fix this problem

    1. reinstall your graphics drivers
    2. repair all ms visual c++ versions that can be repaired (use google if you don't know how to do this)
    3. update your ms visual c++, if it can be updated (use google if you don't know how to do this)
    4. restart your computer (don't skip this)
    5. open auditon
