Defender not installing/running properly

I have downloaded and installed Windows Defender on several computers, but
I'm having trouble with the latest. I just got my computer back from
warranty repair and they re-ghosted my hard drive so I have to re-install all
my apps. I've downloaded and installed Windows Defender, but it won't run.
I just get an error that the MSVCR80.dll file is missing. I've removed and
re-installed several times. I can't find this .dll file out on the microsoft
website either. Any ideas?

Thanks,
Amy
 
I would recommend you use the Search For: box, and enter MSVCR80.DLL to
get the latest news or advice in each NG. There exist recommendations to
solve this problem.

Good luck.
 
Hello Amy,

I agree with CE, his recomentation sound familiar to my. ;-)

But to save you time,

Delete c:\program files\windows defender\MSASCui.exe.manifest
