Accelerometer St.exe-System Error

I recently updated my windows 10 system on my HP laptop and I get the above error code. In the box below the code it says "The code execution cannot proceed because VCRUNTIME140.dll was not found. Reinstalling the program may fix this problem." Does anyone know what this is about? When it x out this error code my laptop it goes away and the laptop seems to work as usual. When I restart the computer the code comes up again until I X it out. I also get a message from HP Action Center that says your computer needs to be restarted in order to set up device. Any help would be appreciated.

    Open windows Control Panel, open Programs and Features, right click the entry for HP 3D DriveGuard and select Uninstall.

    When this has completed, restart the notebook.

    When windows has reloaded, download and install the version of HP 3D DriveGuard on the following link.
