unable to remove version 1.9 to update to 2.3

[DracoMan671]

attempting to uninstall creates an error message for regsvr32 for the i386 dll (which shouldnt even be installed because i am on a 64 bit system) "unknown exit code: 3228369022"

[DracoMan671]

attempting to overwrite the install gives the same error

[DracoMan671]

i removed 1,9 by manually deleting the registry entries, however attempting to install 2.3 still results in this error

Future reference, both x86 and x64 versions are installed because programs can only use the version that matches their architecture, aka, 32-bit programs need the 32-bit version, and 64-bit programs need the 64-bit version

3228369022 (or 0xc06d007e) is "module not found". This means one of the dependent DLLs wasn't found for some reason.

What happens if you try running REGSVR32 on rom-properties.dll manually? (in both the i386 and amd64 directories)

It says its successfully registered but i see no change in windows Explorer when selecting properties

??

Some DLL that's needed by the i386 version of rom-properties.dll is missing, and I'm not sure which one.

You can use the Dependencies tool (it's an updated version of Dependency Walker): https://github.com/lucasg/Dependencies

Open the i386/rom-properties.dll file in Dependencies, and take a screenshot of the DLLs it says are missing.

i assume its these?

[DracoMan671]

incorrect checksums

[DracoMan671]

been busy moving so im sorry its taken so long

[GerbilSoft]

That looks like those two files (i386/zlib1.dll and i386/romdata-4.dll) somehow got corrupted...

Try redownloading v2.3. I checked the GitHub download and it appears to be intact.

[DracoMan671]

it says installed successfully now but nothing happens when i view properties

[GerbilSoft]

What sort of file are you attempting to view? Does it show any useful output if you use the rpcli command line tool to view the file in Command Prompt?

[DracoMan671]

.nds rom, and rpcli shows what looks like normal rom details

[DracoMan671]

specifically its mario kart DS
