Microsoft Visual C++ runtime error

• baseballstud24

  This pops up on my laptop a lot and kicks me off the internet. Does anyone else have this problem? When I first got the laptop it didn't do it, but I feel like I may have downloaded something that makes it do this crap.
  
  If you have it, how did you fix it?

  Have you recently downloaded anything?

  I mean it's been a while...I can't think of anything I've downloaded that would give me some sort of virus (or whatever this is)...I mean I downloaded Adobe, and Java stuff, but I don't think that stuff would be dangerous.

  I'd do a full sweep and disk defrag.

  Did you install microsoft office on your laptop?
• baseballstud24

  It's been on it since I got it...I googled the problem and I saw where it said that if I had installed Office, it could have caused this, but I've had office on the computer since I got it and it didn't have this problem when I first got it, so I'm not sure if that is in fact what caused it.
  
  I went ahead and followed the procedure they told me to do...We'll see if it works.

  ok, I have a friend that had the problem after he put a copy of office on there.

  Yea...I do have office on here. Did your friend just follow the steps online to fix it? Or did he do something else?

  I have no idea, but I would follow whatever microsofts support site says to do.
