The “cAdd runtime error ‘5: invalid procedure call or argument’” usually appears due to a corrupted program file, outdated VB runtime components, or a faulty startup app/add-in. Start by identifying which application triggers the popup and reinstall or update it. Run SFC /scannow and DISM /restorehealth to repair system files. Check Task Manager then Startup and disable unknown entries. Update BIOS, drivers, and Windows.
