Hi,
i have a problem when trying to launch some .exe files. And when i launch them i get this error "The application has failed to start becouse its side by side confoguration is incoret.... "
I know that it isnt the programs foult becouse last time when i tried to run it, the programm worked, then after some time i re-instaled same windows from same cd and wanted to run the program again. I re-instaled win like 5x times.
Re-installed vc redist, 2005, 2008, 2010 but no use, still it didnt work.

This is the error what i get from event wiever:
Activation context generation failed for "D:\RFONLINE\224\SERVER\account\RF_Bin\LoginServerSD.exe". Dependent Assembly Microsoft.VC80.DebugCRT,processorArchitecture="x86",publicKeyToken="1fc8b3b9a1e18e3b",type="win32",version="8.0.50727.4053" could not be found. Please use sxstrace.exe for detailed diagnosis.

So, i tried to google the problem.
I have spent like 48h on google....
Then i tried to test the .exe file with dependancy walker, and when i test it i get fallowing error:


Error: At least one module has an unresolved import due to a missing export function in an implicitly dependent module.Error: Modules with different CPU types were found.
Error: The Side-by-Side configuration information in "d:\rfonline\224\server\account\rf_bin\LOGINSERVERSD.EXE" contains errors. The application has failed to start because its side-by-side configuration is incorrect. Please see the application event log or use the command-line sxstrace.exe tool for more detail (14001).
Warning: At least one delay-load dependency module was not found.
Warning: At least one module has an unresolved import due to a missing export function in a delay-load dependent module.


iT says that msvcp.dll was not found, but i can see the .dll in the folder, but still it says that it wasnt found.

Does somebody know what is the problem ? (win 7 x64 ultimate)
 
Solution
Go to Programs and Features for look for Visual C++ components. Remove them and reboot the system
Link Removed due to 404 Error

Then download and install the Link Removed and Link Removed and install it from Microsoft Downloads. Then see if that works.
where did those 5 posts go ? Did someone delete them ? Nvm
So i tried upgrading windows like you told me, tried removing service pack sp1 (i didnt have one at updates list), when i upgraded my win it became 40% slower idk why. So i just for 50x time re-installed windows (i think my dvd drive and hdd are starting to die because of this, even win 7 installations are getting slower and slower, so i need to fix the problem with side by side error before my pc dies )

So, like i sad i just re-installed win. And i wanted to test what will happen when i try to launch the program without ant vc redists.
So i found a earlier version of my program (2.2.3), when i try to run it starts without ant problems , how this could be, there is no vc redists installed ??? And when i try to launch the 2.2.4 version (from what i did get side by side error), it tells my that side by side in incorrect, and that this version could not be found:
Microsoft.VC80.DebugCRT,processorArchitecture="x86",publicKeyToken="1fc8b3b9a1e18e3b",type="win32",version="8.0.50727.4053" could not be found. Please use sxstrace.exe for detailed diagnosis.


So why is did ? Does this mean that windows installs vc redist version needed form earlier program version, but no for latest(2.2.4) ???

Solution
I tried uninstalling / reinstalling the VS redistributables and this did not correct my problem. I needed to go and reinstall windows 7 altogether which corrected the issue.

Hope this helps.
 
I also have this error running win 7 x64:
Activation context generation failed for "C:\Windows\WinSxS\x86_microsoft.vc80.mfc_1fc8b3b9a1e18e3b_8.0.50727.6195_none_cbf5e994470a1a8f\MFC80.DLL".

Please use sxstrace.exe for detailed diagnosis.

Please advise as to how I can eliminate this error from event viewer. Thank you.
