CC will not open because VCRUNTIME1401.dll was not found

I cannot open CC. A message says 'The code execution cannot proceed because VCRUNTIME140 1.dll was not found. Reinstalling the program may solve this problem'. 

Do I have to uninstall  all CC programs and reinstall them even though it only may solve the problem?

Will Adobe permit me to reinstal through my account?

Thanks for replying but I don't know. I only use software programmes and have no idea how to carry out repairs. After using Photoshop for many years I took out a subscription to Adobe CC 6 years ago and have updated it when required. I have had no problems until this, which occurred after the last update.


understood.

 

google how to repair and update your c++ programs or using a browser that allows popups and cookies, contact adobe support during pst business hours by clicking here, https://helpx.adobe.com/contact.html
