Help me, i really don't know what's wrong with my pc. I just bought it around a month ago. Its a custom built windows 7 pc. Sometimes when i click on an application, nothing happens. Windows updater keeps on searching for updates forever i kept my pc on for 2 days but it still dosnt show result. When i download updates like nvdia gaming from nvidia experience, it download until finished, and then nothing happens. When i update garena's point blank it keeps downloading, after download complete it re-downloads again. And there are a lot of errors when opening applications like api-ms-runtime||101.dll missing but when i copy paste it from another program it shows another error. Theres ALWAYS another error. One time, i installed android studio, when i double click on the .exe it does nothing. But 3 days later it runs fine and i didn't do anything. What exactly is wrong with my pc? How do i fix this? Some people tell me to update windows but i can't even update it. Help me.

And btw i don't think it's because my pc isn't compatible. My pc specification is:
Intel i5
16gb of RAM
Nvidia
126GB SSD and 500gb HDD

get your license key from registry(if the builder didn't provide it) and reinstall windows.

I've had this issue consistently with windows 7-10 across 4 different machines. Makes me want to drive to MS HQ and punch a windows dev in the face.
 
Another update failure. I haven't used updates since I've had Windows 98se. No, you're not getting hacked or any of that crap. Unless you don't know how to browse the Internet. Use Sandboxie, VooDoo Shield and NoScrip.

Here's a nice list of update crap.

Believe me, I run a tight ship. I use Herdprotect, Malwarebytes, Superantispyware, ADwcleaner, Freefixer, Hijackthis, TDsskiller, etc, etc, etc. Nothing ever found. It's all in how you use your computer I guess.
