Good evening everyone !!! I just downloaded the epic games launcher and gives me the following error: “The application could not be started correctly (0xc000007b). Click OK to close the application.” I’ve been able to update DirectX, update Visual C ++, upgrade the .NET Framework and uninstall the laucher, but it does not work … What should I do? Thanks for your support!
