No matter when you get the runtime error 13 message, remove computer infections. We all know that computer viruses are able to tamper with the system settings / memory.

First of all, you have to make sure that the virus protection program on your computer has been updated to latest updated version; and then you can run it to detect & remove all PC threats from the computer. However, if you do not have such program to protect your computer, download a freeware one immediately from the computer.

However, if your system is virus free, you can move to uninstall and reinstall the software that is acting up.

However, the main cause of such runtime error 13 type mismatch is the Windows registry. Windows registry is a system database that used to store important data like user settings, system configuration settings and other information that are required by Windows & applications to properly function.
