.dll not found when in folder?

Post by calebg »

I get an error message when I try to drop MTrk into a project but it is placed in the correct directory and I'm not sure why. I could move to another tracker but I've been using it for like 10+ years and would rather not (my brain kind of has been melded into EC is cut E8 is reverse E9 is retrig since the early 2000s). I can't seem to find a solution so I thought I would post here and see if anyone has any ideas. I am running build 1503 on Windows 10. Sorry if this is a dumb question and tia for any help you can give me.

Sounds like you're missing a dependent .DLL for each of your machines; have you migrated/reinstalled Windows recently? Load up the .DLLs in question in Dependency Walker (http://www.dependencywalker.com/) and see what's missing for each. This generally requires you to track down a particular Visual C++ runtime package or similar and install it. (e.g. missing msvcr71.dll needs Microsoft Visual C++ 2010 Redistributable Package (x86)).

Good luck :)

Download the 'latest' fixkit (Buzzfixkit021217.zip) here - http://buzz.kickedbyconsole.net/index.p ... Utilities/
Under the 'Setup' section place ticks by 'install MFC42.dll' , 'install msvcr70.dll' and 'install msvcr70.dll'

Fingers crossed all will then be well in the world ! (Don't tick any of the other stuff, it was to fix the old version of buzz and any other tweaks could possibly break your install!)

yes
or a read rights problem for the dll. it can be blocked by the antivirus guard because its a downloaded file?
check the file attributes too for rrights.
