There's a sort of virus or trojan or whatever that's going around, which has been damaging the Visual Studio Redistributable files. This affects a lot of products, not just PCSX-Redux. Try re-installing yours: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/cpp/windows/latest-supported-vc-redist?view=msvc-170#latest-microsoft-visual-c-redistributable-version
