Windows 10 – Error: The application has failed to start because the side by side configuration is incorrect

When I tries to run Glary Utilities 5.46, the following error message appears.’The application has failed to start because the side by side configuration is incorrect please see the application event log or use the command line sxstrace.exe tool for more detail

I had posted a question in Microsoft Community and did what the support engineer said, including repairing corrupted files with RestoreHealth and re-installation in compatible mode, but the side by side configuration error still appears. What else can I do?

The following have already been installed. http://fud.community.services.support.microsoft.com/Fud/FileDownloadHandler.ashx?fid=e012ca9a-6548-47ad-a7e9-a0777b03746e

Solution:

This happens when a required Visual C++ Runtime is missing. Start the Command prompt with admin rights and run this command:

SxsTrace Trace -logfile:SxsTrace.etl

Now run Glary Utilities and go back to the command prompt press ENTER to generate the SxsTrace.etl. Now type this:

sxstrace Parse -logfile:SxSTrace.etl -outfile:SxSTrace.txt

Now open the SxSTrace.txt trace and look which VC++ runtime is missing.
