It means Windows encountered an unhandled exception error from the app in question.

but what is a Msvcrt.Dll?

[Butler to Baby Sloths]

but what is a Msvcrt.Dll?

It is the runtime library for Microsoft Visual C.

Is there anything displayed in the "libraries" in Explorer?

[Kulanae]

Probably best to just go into the command prompt and run:

sfc /scannow

To run the Microsoft System File Checker and restore corrupted system files.

[Draknalor186]

It is the runtime library for Microsoft Visual C.

and what really is microsoft visual C++?

and what really is microsoft visual C++?

C++ is basically the programming language which most games and much commercial software is written in. Windows is written in it as well.

This error sounds like one of your DLL files got corrupted. Do what Kulanae suggested and see if that fixes it.

Try running your PC in safe mode, I've noted that a corruption problem will fix itself after this.

i have
Microsoft Visual C++ 2010 x64 Redistributable Setup_20131030_195427075
Microsoft Visual C++ 2010 x86 Redistributable Setup_20131030_200855469
Microsoft Visual C++ 2010 x64 Redistributable Setup_20131030_223938173

would it be safe too delete them ? since feels weird too have 3 off them O-o

Where do you have those? they look like installation files? They're different things though. Not only is one for 32 bit systems, but they're different revisions.

just did a search in the data folder after Microsoft visual C++ and those 3 were the result

[Rukh]

Probably should leave them alone then. Did you delete anything else?

haven't deleted anything
also if i go into the folder where every program installed is there is like 15 different microsoft visual C++ it's really weird

[Rukh]

That's actually pretty normal actually. They're different revisions with changes, or additions. No worries there.

General advice: Never delete something unless you're certain you personally downloaded and installed it. And even then, it should be properly uninstalled before any deleting occurs.
