Description

What steps will reproduce the problem?

  1. Start Dolphin
  2. Receive error msg
    3.

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
Main screen.

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
R1500 (compiled by Omegadox) & R1501 (compiled by daxtu).

Please provide any additional information below.

I suspect it's something I've done, but I've never seen a reference to
this issue before. Actual text:
"The application has failed to start because it's side-by-side
configuration is incorrect. Please see the application event log for more
detail."

I can't find an "event log" file; the log directory only has the
oglgfx.txt file in it.

I got this error when I switched from R 14xx to R 1516. The "event log" the message
is talking about is in Event Viewer -> Window Logs/Application. There you should be
able to find an Error labeled SideBySide.

Here's the description for the Error:

"Activation context generation failed for
"C:\Users\Facundo\Dolphin_1516\DolphinWx.exe". Dependent Assembly
Microsoft.VC90.CRT,processorArchitecture="x86",publicKeyToken="1fc8b3b9a1e18e3b",type="win32",version="9.0.21022.8"
could not be found. Please use sxstrace.exe for detailed diagnosis."

I used the sxstrace tool and I was able to generate a trace of the error, but the
information is in Spanish and besides I can't upload it.

Look here for info on Side by Side and how to use sxstrace.exe:

I installed the newest version of the C++ redistributable from MS (based on a
comment on the emu forums). This fixed the problem. Note that when I used the link
above, I get a page not found error.

But I believe this can be closed.
