Kernelbase.dll crashing Cubase

I’ve tried the re-install of the MSVCP but no joy with the Cubase project. I only reinstalled the 2015 and later ones but there are quite a few older than that.

I’m wondering if there is an issue with the kernelbase.dll file. From this MS help article.

https://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/forum/all/applications-fail-to-start-with-kernelbasedll/44a4c2ad-a43f-479b-b026-bcdc2ff01285

I’ve been following the section on registering the kernelbase.dll file but it throws up an error:

kernalbase

The guide recommends replacing the kernebase.dll file from another computer. I’ve tried to do this from my laptop but when I try to replace the .dll file I get a message saying the ‘destination folder is access denied’ with an option to try again or cancel the action.
