It sounds as if your command processor is corrupted. Try a
System File Check by doing this:
- Click Start / Run
- Type sfc.exe /scannow {OK}

Now I have tried both normal and safe modes and starting CMD by typing
c:\windows\system32\cmd.exe {Enter}

Both results are the same and What I got was the message:
"The application failed to initialize properly (0xc0000142). Click on OK
to
terminate the application."

You press F8 repeatedly during the early boot phase, then
select Safe Mode from the menu you see.

I cannot open CMD. A box appears and it says, "The application failed
to
initialize properly (0xc0000142). Click on OK to terminate the
application."

There are several ways to open a Command Prompt. You
need to tell us which method you use. In the meantime do
this:
- Click Start, then Run
- Type this: c:\windows\system32\cmd.exe {Enter}
- Report the result.
- Try the same in Safe Mode.
