[FIXED!][algodoo won't run]

Postby Versieon » Wed Jun 09, 2010 11:31 pm

Fixed at v1.7.3 :clap:
This bug occurred only with v1.7.2.

I had installed algodoo over the old copy, and found that it was using the wrong files, so I uninstalled it so i could reinstall correctly, however, algodoo will not run anymore, and I gett an error message.

The procedure entry point CreateSymbolicLinkW could not be located in the dynamic link library KERNEL32.dll


Please help

I have this problem too, RicH did as well, see the topic [Algodoo v.1.7.2 beta]Algodoo won't run., it may be best to put all information in that thread, please post your system specs and what version of .NET framework you're running (this was my initial suspicion, but I assume that no-one else edited the installer, so I'm thinking it may not have been).

I have the same bug... I uninstalled all algodoos i think and it wrote same thing. Now i downloaded 1.7.1 again.

I think if they will release Linux version, the bug will not be inside (I'm using dual system - XP + Mandriva Linux 2010)

1.7.3 works, although there was an error loading the vcredist at the end of the setup. Error code 2 or something.
Still cant wait for multicore support, really looking forward to that!!
Great jod on fixing this so quick!
