I use the wifi at Panera (and other similar places). To do so I am often asked to start my default browser (Internet Explorer) to supply them with additional information (or some such). Today I kept getting error messages, resulting in IE shutting down.

The error message was in a box labelled WerFault.exe

The message said:

procedure entry point ucrtbase.terminate could not be located in dynamic link library api-ms-win-crt-runtime-l1-1-0.dll

I'm afraid this is all gibberish to me.

What does this mean and what can I do about it?
 
Try googling that error message. This was one of the pages I found:
The procedure entry point ucrtbase.terminate could not be located in the dynamic link library api-ms-win-crt-runtime-l1-1-0.dll

^^The top answer to that seems to suggest you should try running a program called 'windows update diagnostic' from Microsoft Support.

Thank you. I think the first post in the page you referenced recommended running System File Checker (sfc.exe).
So I am trying that now. It is still running.

Will try Windows Update Diagnostic next.

Thanks for the pointers. :)
