Audacity as failed to start

Audacity 3 Help Forum Windows

I got a problem opening Audacity. A message window appears with text:

C:Program FilesAudacityaudacity.exe
This application has failed to start because the application configuration is incorrect. Reinstalling the application may fix this problem.

I tried re-installing Audacity 2.0.2 but problem still persists. May I seek for advice?
