Installed 7z1514-x64 on clean build of 64-bit Windows 7 Pro (updated). Selected Start>All Programs>7-Zip>7-Zip File Manager. Pop-up error (see attached) reappeared with several attempts to close (about 5?). Ultimately opened the file Manager. Am I missing a file or was a file supposed to be modified during install? Or sould I back version for Windows 7?

    I didn't know about that problem before your message. So I googled for your error message.

    Was it "Office 2016" problem in your case?

    I did install Office 2016 on my clean OS. I had manually installed Visual C++ redistributable for Visual Studio 2015 for some other software on my previous build. I don't think Office ever installed these libraries. Thanks for your help and patience. I hadn't Googled it myself (sorry).
