Wireshark will not start at all on windows 8

I installed Wireshark. Tried opening it only to receive 'Application failed to start correctly 0xc000007b'. I looked on other forums for answers, none of which helped. Running as Admin does not work. Compatibility for Windows 7 does not work.

I really need help, it's honestly bugging me.

Oh, not sure if this helps but, iTunes does the same thing, shows the same error, and so does iExplorer. So, not only does Wireshark not work but some other apps do the same thing.

One more thing, I had Windows 8 before with iTunes on it, it worked but then I went to upgrade to 8.1, then downgraded a little after because games would not work. So, the Windows 8 install I'm using now is not the original, and again, on this installation of Windows 8, iTunes no longer works.

(I'm going on about iTunes because I'm trying to add a backstory to something that may be of use to you to help me).

Thanks for any help,
