[RESOLVED] 4.4 Fails to Start "correctly"

Post by cookedinlh »

P3D 4.4 kept crashing after 20-30 min using some addon aircraft. (it's not the addons) . . .I've narrowed it down to OS, C++ Redist, Display and other Drivers, .NET and more. Not very narrow! . . . so after scrubbing drivers and all unnecessary Registry bits I completely reinstalled WIN 10 (with MSFT Tech support do all remotely). . . he did not touch P3D but it now complains that these three dlls are missing.
vcruntime140.dll
concrt140.dll
msvcp140.dll
After researching more I replaced these in Sys32 and SysWOW64 folders. P3D still complains and will not start "correctly".
I'm now out of ideas . . . again . .

diaglog says "application unable to start correctly 0xc000007b" . . maybe related to .NET?

Also to note . . P3D v3.4 also on same computer same SSD drive works fine. Is it just a matter of just reinstalling the CLIENT?

This turned out to be C++ Redistributable 2017 missing . . once installed it launched fine. THis closes this issue but P3D v4.4 still FREEZES and crashes after about 20 min use. THis is being dealt with in another client application thread . . so this is closed
