There may be several reasons why it happens:

- have you installed the "Microsoft Visual C++ Redistributable for Visual Studio 2017" ?

- are you trying to use an OpenCL-enabled version without having OpenCL drivers installed ? Does LuxMark work ?

- are you using a different Blender version from the one supported ? It must be the official v2.79b.

I downloaded the beta one for blender 2.8 and it is working fine so I think the dependencies are ok.

I tried both with and without opencl

I am not sure about the official blender release. the screenshot has a small part in the upper right corner showing the blender release from the splash screen

Yup.

Do you have problems with LuxCoreRender v2.1 or the v2.2beta3 ? The problem is likely to be the Blender version, for instance, if you are using a buildbot Blender binaries, they will not work.

Otherwise, it could be some kind of addon conflict, do you have AMD ProRender installed/enabled ? You should try with a fresh Blender v2.79b installation.

Looks like you use a 2.79 buildbot build, those are not supported.
