just bought coreldraw x8 home version and installed it on windows 7, met the requirements, installation finished and when i try yo open corel i get the program can't start because api-ms-win-crt-runtime-l1-1-0.dll is missing from your computer. try reinstalling the program to fix this. really? didn't help any ideas anyone.
I promise my friend once I get this solved I will let everyone know. At this point I am reinstalling windows as I KNOW none of the listed solutions above or elsewhere are true solutions. I don't need a band aid I need a new tire LOL...
I've done all of the above to no avail.. Same error each time... :) But I have patience so I will figure this bug out...

I suggest you run a full scan of your system. I think the issue is because of a virus.
Also while installing Windows 7, the driver is not installed properly.
So the runtime error can also be fixed with the help of a proper driver update.
