Where have you installed Aurora?

If its in Program Files or a subdirectory of that then there are sometimes access permission issues (especially with newer versions of Windows)

I install in a separate directory (C:\Games\Aurora) to avoid this.

Try installing into a directory with no space in it.   If that doesn't work try running as administrator?

What file are you using?   Where did you download it from?

Unfortunately most of the information I can find online about error code 0xc00000e5 relates to Comodo antivirus software and comes from 2016/2017.

What version of Windows are you using?
Is this a recent Windows install or have you been using it for a while?
What antivirus software are you using?
Are you having any issues with other software?

thank you for investigating.  Windows 10 for quite a while now.  AVG anti-virus software.  I am not experiencing any other issues but I will disable AVG and do a new download/install.

There were numerous reported issues with this error, caused by AVG, with different apps as victims (sometimes nearly all executables on the disk affected).
It were fixed in some cases by uninstalling AVG (and NOT installing it again), yet in some cases they needed a restore procedure to a point, where AVG was not yet installed. In some cases only clean Windows install was able to fix it.

Yet another reason never to use AVG - this is not the first such case with that program.
