Carlos, In future please refrain from carrying out multiple topic postings on basically the same subject! You won't obtain an answer to your query any faster!. Also please try to keep the whole conversation in one question/thread to speed up any resolution. Please see your other posting (https://support.avg.com/answers?id=906b0000000DlBfAAK).

Hello Carlos,
I apologize for the delay in responding to you, the issue seems that the "C++ Redistributable for Visual Studio 2015" are corrupted. In this case, we recommend you to repair the C++ Redistributable for Visual Studio 2015 installation from https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=48145 (please click on the link > click download > download first two .exe files and run that one by one). Please reboot your computer once and check if the issue still persist.
Best regards,
Alok.
