Hi, welcome to the forum!

What version do you currently have? (Help > About)

Also what antivirus are you using?

If this is the first time you're installing MB, you won't be able to give us the version number by Help > About since you can't launch the program.

Is this the Store version? The full installer? Or Portable? If either of the last two, try installing into a non UAC Windows folder. For example, C:\MusicBee. Or even better, on a partition other than C.

C:programfiles(86)\musicbee\bacs.dll
I'm assuming you typed this in and did not do a copy/paste, correct? As far as I can recall, there is no "bacs.dll" file contained within the MB installation.
Download the latest MusicBee v3.5 or 3.6 patch from here.
Unzip into your MusicBee directory and overwrite existing files.

it will probably be the security software blocking/deleting bass.dll, and if thats the case then musicbee would need to be whitelisted
