Thanks for help suggestions, but I have to report that I have the very latest Windows 10, (updated 17 Jan 2017) on the latest Dell Alienware R3 hardware so it cannot be a problem resulting from outdated files. It is the exact reverse, I have no access to old stuff since it is all new and so I do not have the option of rolling back to obsolete versions of .net.framework (more on this later) or any other OS files. I had enormous trouble overcoming Windows' resistance to any fiddling with the msvcp140 and vcruntime140 files, but I beat it into submission in the end.

Having taken the trouble to "cure" the .dll file problems I then ran into the dreaded error code 0xc000007b. Suggestions for curing this involved anything from a simple re-boot through to messing about with .net.framework. Again Windows resisted any changes and I am still no further advanced with Photoshop CC. I am wondering what happens when this error is sorted. I am losing the will to live!

Strangely, I have had no problems with the Lightroom installation. But I didn't and don't want Lightroom!

CS6 and earlier are no longer sold, so beware of fakes on ebay

Until Adobe sort out the bugs in CC it would be nice to buy a fully de-bugged earlier version, but you can't. I ran into loading problems in Photoshop CC with missing .dll files, msvcp140.dll & vcruntime140.dll, which, frankly, amazed me. Such basic errors for which I have neither the time nor the patience to discover and enter into a work-round.

So I will uninstalling CC and reloading my faithful old CS2 which is bullet-proof, intuitive and fully paid for. True, CC has lots more to offer, but I have no use for any of it.

those are microsoft files related to visual c++, not adobe and indicate your computer doesn't meet specs. if you updated your ms c++, that would probably resolve the problem.

no, adobe doesn't sell older versions of photoshop. and for $10/mo (which includes past to cs6, current and future ps versions, as well as, lightroom) it wouldn't make much sense to buy it outright because even 5 years ago, ps cs6 cost ~$700.
