I asked this to the pool and got only one answer which wasn't helpful at all. I was hoping maybe you could help me...?
I'm having a serious issue with some of my programs. Yesterday they were all working just fine!
When I try to open the following programs:
Windows Live Messenger
Yahoo Messenger
Mahjong Garden Deluxe
Tri Peaks Solitare 2
I get the following message:
This application has failed to start because the application configuration is incorrect. Reinstalling the application may fix this problem.
I uninstalled, then reinstalled Windows Live Messenger and Yahoo Messenger. This did not fix the problem.
I even did a system restore back to yesterday, which said it changed nothing. I then restored back to Saturday, which fixed nothing.
I did virus scans yesterday, so I checked my quarantine chests and restored a couple of system volume file things. That did nothing, either.
I run Windows XP, and am left scratching my head, here.
In Add/Remove Programs, uninstall everything with "Microsoft Visual C++ 200x Redistributable" in the title. Restart your computer. Download and install it again from here:

Yay! It worked! Thank you so much! Without you're help with my computer questions, I'd be up a creek. :-)
