Hi @Anonymous and welcome to the community!

This is probably due to some corruption with your C++ libraries.

Thankfully we have an article with steps on how to solve this!

From that article:

1. Reinstall Microsoft Visual C++ Runtime Libraries from Autodesk software installation package..
2. Open the Control Panel and go to Programs & Features >  programs > Uninstall a Program
3. Run a reinstall of your Autodesk software - in the same window, right-click on the program (e.g. AutoCAD) then click Uninstall/Change to start the Install Wizard
4. Select "Repair or Reinstall" and finally "Reinstall" again.
