Microsoft Visual C++ Runtime Library, error


Recommended Posts

My computer has really been acting up these past couple of days, i get this annoying pop up every minute saying "runtime error! Program: C:\Progra~1\Messen~1\msmsgs.exe R6025 Pure Virtual Function call" and the title says Microsoft Visual C++ Runtime Library

what do you guys think i should do, please help :blush:

btw its coming from Windows Messenger and i hardly use it....

I did a little more searching for this and might have found a workaround. Install Messenger Plus! (don't install the sponsor program when prompted). It won't solve the problem, but will handle the error so you won't have to see it. You can download it at http://www.msgplus.net

Do you happen to be running Norton Antivirus? If so, try this:

Open Norton Antivirus (Right-click on the Norton Antivirus icon in the System Tray/Notification Area (by the clock), choose 'Open Norton Antivirus'), click Options, then Instant Messenger then uncheck MSN Instant Messenger and click OK.

If that doesn't work then just reformat and reload. I'd bet real money that will solve your problem! :laugh:

    • TCL 75" 4K Smart TV hits lowest price, now less than £500 by Paul Hill Are you in the UK and looking for a massive 75-inch Ultra HD 4K HDR TV at a relatively affordable price? If so, check out this TCL (75P755K) 75-inch TV now because it’s at its lowest price of just £499.00, down 15% from £589.00. The model in question is slightly older, from 2024, but it’s still an excellent home entertainment upgrade given its feature set and aggressive price point. What you get: Features for the price The feature set of this model is definitely pretty impressive. It supports 4K HDR, wide colour gamut, and multiple HDR formats including HDR10+ and Dolby Vision. It also leverages MEMC (Motion Estimation & Motion Compensation), a proprietary algorithm from TCL that helps to reduce motion display blur and keep motion trails to a minimum. While MEMC will do heavy lifting to ensure the best picture, the TV only has a 60Hz refresh rate, but an effective rate of 120Hz thanks to efforts by TCL. This TCL model features Dolby Atmos 2.0 that immerses you more in whatever you’re watching on the TV. In terms of software, this TV comes with Google TV (based on Android) which is well-known and widely supported, ensuring you can use all the apps you depend on. It also supports Google Assistant, Chromecast, and voice control. The Chromecast support allows you to easily stream from your computer or phone to the TV to share what you’re watching to the people around you. The Google Assistant support can also be good if you have smart home devices around the house that can connect to it. The audio features for this TV are also good and mean you don’t need to buy a separate sound bar immediately. User experience and potential considerations According to What Hi-Fi, which reviewed the smaller 65-inch version of this TV, TCL’s TV delivers when it comes to HDR; gaming features such as low input lag, VRR, and Game Bar; wide colour gamut, and the operating system. What it didn’t like about the TV was the limited brightness, which degraded the HDR in bright rooms; the average motion handling; the lack of bass; the lack of local dimming; and the budget-oriented build quality. Making the smart buy decision If you can overlook its limitations, this TV could be a good pick if you need a new TV in the living room on a budget. If you are a serious gamer looking for a high refresh rate, or someone in a very bright room, then you will probably want to look elsewhere. Amazon is also offering free add-on services including wall mounting and unpack. If you do decide to pick up this TCL TV and find a fault with it, you have 30-days from getting the receipt to return it. TCL 75P755K 75-inch 4K TV: £499 (Amazon UK) - MSRP £589 / 15% off This Amazon deal is U.K. specific, and not available in other regions unless specified.

    • I came here to post something similar, you beat me to it. Why on earth would somebody buy Windows again, even this shady grey-market cheap key, when they already have it and an upgrade from 10 to 11 is free?
    • I maintain that the Cybertruck was a social experiment.  "Can we convince the massively insecure petrol guzzling, Dodge Ram loving, right wing idiots to buy a poorly built, underpowered, underspecified, electric vehicle that they know everyone will laugh at them in"
    • Wish you could set the WiFi country without setting an SSID. This would stop the warning on every boot.
