.NET Framework error The specified module could not be found. 0x8007007E

Question
-
I am trying to run the program IncrediBackup. It has been running fine until the other day when I started getting a .NET Framework error: An error occurred creating the form. The specified module could not be found. 0x8007007E.
I have tried reinstalling IncrediBackup but that did not help. I have reinstalled .NET Framework & that did not help. I have tried running it in every compatibility mode choice including the IncrediBackup tech support suggestion of Windows XP Service Pack 3. (Note I had not changed the compatibility setting prior to the program starting to produce the .NET Framework error.) It does seem the error started popping up after some recent Windows 10 updates in May but I am not positive that is related.
Details:
See the end of this message for details on invoking
just-in-time (JIT) debugging instead of this dialog box.

************** JIT Debugging **************
To enable just-in-time (JIT) debugging, the .config file for this
application or computer (machine.config) must have the
jitDebugging value set in the system.windows.forms section.
The application must also be compiled with debugging
enabled.
For example:
<configuration>
<system.windows.forms jitDebugging="true" />
</configuration>
When JIT debugging is enabled, any unhandled exception
will be sent to the JIT debugger registered on the computer
rather than be handled by this dialog box.

the program is trying to load an ActiveX control: "AxHost.GetOcxCreate"
Thanks for your reply. Yes, I am using the current version of IncrediBackup. Unfortunately it is not updated very often at all. I am working the next 48hrs but when I get a chance I will check with Process Monitor as you suggested. Thanks!
but can not find the file: "The specified module could not be found. "
So seems more like a problem with the setup.
You could try Process Monitor to see what file it can not find.
As the program is still using the old .NET Framework 3.5: is this really the current version?- Marked as answer by birds3chas Tuesday, July 2, 2019 1:03 AM
