To preface I have had no issues with BYOND on my PC (Windows 10) for months but I decided to download it on my laptop as well (Windows 11), but every time I try to launch it I just get 0xc000007b error.

I have tried everything from reinstalling, updating the DirectX End-User Runtimes, VC Redistributable x64 and x86, sfc scannow, numerous fixes mentioned in this forum and the Microsoft forums as well, running it as administrator but the error persists despite everything.

Any help if anyone has faced this issue before would be greatly appreciated!

Lummox JR	The error means something isn't installed correctly. You can use Dependency Check to see if there's a specific .dll causing the problem. That should give us more information.
