Windows System Error On Start Up ......
18 Answers
The last few times I've booted my laptop up, I get the following message:
ColorUservice.exe - System Error
The program can't start because MSVCP100.dll is missing from your computer. Try reinstalling the programme to fix this problem.
I'm running Win 10 and have recently installed quite a big Windows update and I'm wondering if this has possibly caused the problem in some way??
I've just tried opening WLXPhotoGallery and got 3 error messages, all very similar to the above one.
Any idea how to fix it please, apart from doing a system restore??

Try placing another copy of it in the main Windows folder. (I've no idea why that works but it's got me out of a hole more than once!). I also note that your laptop appears to be an Asus model ('cos ColorUservic e.exe appears to be Asus software) and that there are threads on the web that suggest that installing (or, more likely, reinstalling ) the Asus Smart...

It sounds like you're not the only one:

Take a look inside the System 32 folder on your computer (it's nested inside the Windows folder) to see if you can actually see Msvcp100.dll listed there. If it's not there, simply get a copy of it from any other Windows computer (via a memory stick, or similar) and put it in there. (Then restart your computer and cross your fingers!)
If the file is already there, you could still try replacing it with a copy from another computer.

What have you been doing on your PC in order to get User Vice in color (sic) ?
My instinct would be to get a copy of the file as per Chris' suggestion. Past experience suggests where one problem occurs then there are others and the warning message simply changes.
Could you try reinstalling the Gallery software ?

I emailed Asus and they gave me a link to download the following Microsoft software:
https:/ /www.mi crosoft .com/en -us/dow nload/d etails. aspx?id =30679#
When I click on the link, it takes me to 3 downloads and asks which download(s) I want to download. I've emailed Asus again, but it'll prob be Monday before they reply, so does anyone know which one(s) I should download - all of them, or just one particular one??
TIA :)

You need to access your computer's 'basic information' page:
If your laptop's keyboard has got a 'Pause-Break' key then press it together with the Windows key.
If not, press the Windows key together with I. That will open 'Settings'. Click on 'PC & Devices' and then on 'PC Info'. Check the make of the processor. If it's ARM (unlikely) you'll need VSU4\vcredist_arm.exe. If not (meaning that it's AMD or Intel), you can forget about that file.
Then look under 'System Type'.
If it says '32-bit' you need VSU_4\vcredist_x86.exe.
If it says '64-bit' you need VSU_4\vcredist_x64.exe

.... for some reason, I forgot to try the Asus Smart Gesture as you suggested.
Anyway, I tried repairing it, but that didn't work, so I uninstalled, then reinstalled it ...... so far, so good - no pop up error and I managed to open the WLXPhotoGallery with no errors ...... a well-deserved BA is coming your way Chris :)
