What language did you set? Might be a localization error. Try uninstalling it, then delete all contents in C:\Users\<username>\AppData\Roaming\Factorio and install it again, with language set to English.
Should you get the same error immediately or after changing the language in-game, post the factorio log files here.

none of them work. i tried it and it did the same thing anything else that could fix it?

nevermind i just fixed it thank you for your help. and keep doing what your doing

Could you tell us how you fixed that issue? It's for my own curiosity and maybe might help others who have the same problem.
Also, moved to resolved.
