So I have recently downloaded Battlefield 1 to try out the trial but after wasting 3 days of my horrendous internet to download it, I get a message saying:
"The application was unable to start correctly (0xc000007b)"
I thought oh well guess this game doesn't work on my pc because I was too lazy to fix it so I uninstalled it. A couple days later my friend gifts me Squad to play, so I spend a couple hours downloading and then I get the exact same message/error. This problem seems to be only on Squad and Battlefield 1 so far. I can run LoL, MC, Fortnite, etc. just perfectly. I have tried every method i've found online such as updating my vcredist, directx, runtimes, drivers, windows, and seem to have no solution. I also tried replacing a lot of my DLL files in my system32 folder, I tried running the games as administrator and compatibility modes. I've also tried Dependency Walker and apparently I need to replace like a million missing DLL files which I don't think is right. I'm pretty sure i've downloaded the right version (64 bit). My last option is replace every single DLL file that it tells me to. I am honestly out of options... please help me 🙁
 
Try to copy all the DLL files from the DirectX folder that should come inside the game's directory and then paste them into the game's directory itself, if you are saying that you got to replace a million of missing DLL files, then do this.

Other way is just uninstalling DirectX and vcredist and then install them again. (For vcredist both x86 and x64 versions).
