When trying to open Adobe PDF Reader today I received an error message "api-ms-win-crt-runtime-l1-1-0.dll is missing". Googled it and ran a repair through Win 7 Programs "repair" to no avail. Uninstalled and downloaded twice, same message. Then downloaded GIMP and had the same message. So, is this a WIN 7 issue or ?? I downloaded a free PDF reader and it works fine.
 
Windows 7 issue

You might also attempt a SFC and see if that corrects the issue.



Windows users report this issue when a computer shows an error message stating the missing api-ms-win-crt-runtime-l1-1-0.dll while trying to open a program. In most cases, it either means that Universal CRT, a part of Visual C++ Redistributable, has failed to install correctly, or the file got corrupted.

Follow instructions from here.
