I had this kind of problem, I tried to install Visual C++ 64 but Windows denied the installation because not found properly folder. I tried with copy of "vcruntime140_1.dll" in Mozilla Firefox Folder but nothing. In the end I unistalled Firefox x64 and I re Installed Firefox x32 (I have a recent HP laptop x64 ....) . Now Firefox it's OK and I can to back with the using of my favorite Browser.

Keep in mind that you will have to re-register missing vcruntime140_1.dll runtime file properly if the problem still exists. All you have to do is to copy the DLL file to the System32 folder. However, it has to be done as an Administrator. You can do it by following these steps.
