Phyton DLL Error #39

Closed Imiona closed 2 years ago

Imiona commented 2 years ago

I get a Python Error when executing the .exe File with the newest Version (5.8.1) error

I downloaded the previous Version (5.7.4.2) and it starts up fine.

So something has changed.

I get the same error, except it's preceded by a different one: image

I had this first error with another program a while back and it's because Windows 7 doesn't have the DLL it's complaining about (it's a system file in later versions of Windows). I tried the fix I found back then (installing this, had to be in System32 instead of the program folder this time), and the program then opened without error.

So basically SteamUI-OldGlory is by default no longer compatible with Windows 7.

@Jonius7 That is a different DLL file, and I have both the x86 and x64 versions of that redist installed (though it is labelled 2015-2022 instead). My versions were slightly out of date, so I tried reinstalling the redist and removing the DLL from System32, and I got the same error again.

I think the issue is I am using Python 3.9 now (which does not support Windows 7) I will switch back to 3.8 for the next release

Jonius7 commented 2 years ago

Latest version 5.8.3 is built using Python 3.8 now

Works now, thx Jonius
