Original Title: Keep on getting an error message when adding photos/videos to movie maker

"This program can't start because api-ms-win-core-timezone-l1-1-0.dll is missing from your computer. Try reinstalling the program to fix this problem."

I have tried reinstalling movie maker and windows essentials 4 times but nothing worked.When the pop-up appears and I click okay it gives me 2 other pop-ups which are exactly the same. It then allows me to add a file to movie maker but it only gives audio and the rest of the video is black.

I can't seem to find a trustworthy fix for this so any help would be appreciated.
