Hello there. I’ve tried all of the methods above but i can’t get my game to work. The game i’'m trying to run is called ‘‘Sims 4’’ and i got it from ‘‘abrokegamer’’. it worked perfectly fine on my laptop and my external disc but now that i’m trying to transfer it to my computer it first said that ‘‘api-ms-win-crt-runtime-l1-1-0.dll was missing’’ and after i resolved that issue a message popped up saying that ‘‘the application was unable to start corectly (0xc000007b)’’. I’m trying to transfer the game to a pc with Windows 7 ultimate , 64-bit operating system.

My friend downloaded it on Steamunlocked and he tried to give it to me as a gift on my laptop. It runs obviously on his laptop but not mine. My laptop is a 64 bit architecture and I heard that the game is built for 32 bit architecture computers. If that’s the case, is it somehow possible to run the game?

Hey Hmzlrq Hazard,

I can understand that it can be really frustrating because I used to play that game as well, can you tell me where you downloaded that game from? There are two reasons for this error code to pop up either it’s not the correct architecture for you or the game you have downloaded is corrupted now and you will have to re-install the game. Don’t try to install with the old setup as it’s possible that the setup files are corrupted as well. Download a fresh setup installer and install the game from that setup. Also, was the game running before?
