Hi @Anonymous,

I see that you are visiting as a new member. Welcome to the Autodesk Community!

I suggest following method one as described here:

1.  Go to Windows Update and make sure that your computer is fully updated.  The Universal CRT should be delivered by this method.

2.  If not, manually download and install the Microsoft Visual C++ Redistributable for your version of Windows (likely x64)

For Windows x64:
http://download.microsoft.com/download/9/3/F/93FCF1E7-E6A4-478B-96E7-D4B285925B00/vc_redist.x64.exe

For Windows x86:

http://download.microsoft.com/download/9/3/F/93FCF1E7-E6A4-478B-96E7-D4B285925B00/vc_redist.x86.exe

3.  You might have to choose uninstall first before you can install the above downloads because of previous failed installs.

4.  Reboot then try to launch AutoCAD 2017 again.

I will also move this thread to I&L for more options.

Skip Method 2 for now and try my solution #2 in the original thread:
