Unfortunately, launching Codex fails because msvcr100.dll can't be found.\r\n\r\nGoogle led me to the Visual C redistributable runtime, which I installed just in case that was the issue. Nothing changed. I then placed c:\\windows\\system32\\msvcr100.dll in the Codex app directory, which gave me a runtime error with an obscure hex code.\r\n\r\nI'm not really a Windows person, so I don't know if there's an obvious fix, or if having the hex code in the runtime error would help. I can try getting it to you if so--I don't have cut-and-paste working between the VM and host at the moment, which is why I haven't included it directly.\r\n\r\nOverall the Win10 installation seems stable and hasn't given me any other issues, so I'm wondering if perhaps I need a specific version of msvcr100.dll installed? Again, I'm not a Windows person, but I recall having at least half a dozen installed at one point. I don't know if each of those was actually in use, or if the older versions were just artifacts of the package installation system.\r\n\r\nThis is a brand new installation as of yesterday onto a blank VM drive, with all updates applied.\r\n\r\nThanks for your help."},"comment":{"url":"https://api.github.com/repos/jscholes/codex/issues/comments/371260787","html_url":"https://github.com/jscholes/codex/issues/5#issuecomment-371260787","issue_url":"https://api.github.com/repos/jscholes/codex/issues/5","id":371260787,"user":{"login":"ndarilek","id":1172,"avatar_url":"https://avatars3.githubusercontent.com/u/1172?v=4","gravatar_id":"","url":"https://api.github.com/users/ndarilek","html_url":"https://github.com/ndarilek","followers_url":"https://api.github.com/users/ndarilek/followers","following_url":"https://api.github.com/users/ndarilek/following{/other_user}","gists_url":"https://api.github.com/users/ndarilek/gists{/gist_id}","starred_url":"https://api.github.com/users/ndarilek/starred{/owner}{/repo}","subscriptions_url":"https://api.github.com/users/ndarilek/subscriptions","organizations_url":"https://api.github.com/users/ndarilek/orgs","repos_url":"https://api.github.com/users/ndarilek/repos","events_url":"https://api.github.com/users/ndarilek/events{/privacy}","received_events_url":"https://api.github.com/users/ndarilek/received_events","type":"User","site_admin":false},"created_at":"2018-03-07T19:45:11Z","updated_at":"2018-03-07T19:45:11Z","author_association":"NONE","body":"Interestingly enough, when I uninstall the 2010 runtime, and only have\nthe 2015 runtime installed, searching my system for msvc100.dll comes up\nblank in all system locations. When I manually poke around in\n\\windows\\system or \\windows\\system32, I don't see msvcr100.dll either.\n\nThe only copy I find is in an installed game. When I place *that* in the\ncodex directory, instead of a crash with an odd hex code, I supposedly\nget an error log of some sort. I can send this to you if you like, but\ngiven that I'm just using some random person's DLL, I don't know how\nuseful it might be. :)\n\nThoughts on what else I might try?\n"}}
