InDesign fails to launch or crashes on startup due to corrupted VCRuntime files after a Windows update.
InDesign 2020 and later versions may fail to launch on Windows systems due to corrupted Microsoft Visual C++ runtime (VCRuntime) files, often caused by faulty Windows updates. When this issue occurs, InDesign crashes immediately on startup with a system error message, typically before the splash screen appears, preventing you from opening any documents.
