Solve : After Vista System Restore, msvcr80.dll is missing! (Solved)? |
| Answer» <html><body><p>I had to do a system restore, probably because I was messing around with the registry. <br/><br/>Apparently the system restore deleted some DLLs, including msvcr80.dll.<br/>I know it's missing because a program I made uses a library made in C, which needs this DLL, so my program won't start now. <br/><br/><br/><br/>I do actually have multiple versions of this DLL:<br/><br/><br/><br/>But if I put any of them in the folder with my program, instead of getting a missing dll <a href="https://interviewquestions.tuteehub.com/tag/error-25548" style="font-weight:bold;" target="_blank" title="Click to know more about ERROR">ERROR</a>, I get an error that it is the wrong version:<br/><br/><br/><br/>So I am not sure what to do. I don't think it is just a missing file anymore, because the program can run on another computer of mine, but that doesn't have any unique dlls. So I think maybe the OS just can't find the DLL or something. Other programs seem to work fine, but I haven't tried them all since the system restore.<br/><br/>I don't want to reset my computer to original factory settings because of one missing file! <br/><br/>I have Vista HP, <a href="https://interviewquestions.tuteehub.com/tag/32bitbrbr-1855663" style="font-weight:bold;" target="_blank" title="Click to know more about 32BIT">32BIT</a>, and a 56K connection. I did a search online and apparently you can get it here:<br/><a href="http://www.dll-files.com/dllindex/dll-files.shtml?msvcr80">http://www.dll-files.com/dllindex/dll-files.shtml?msvcr80</a><br/><br/>(from here: <a href="http://www.blitzbasic.com/Community/posts.php?topic=60232">http://www.blitzbasic.com/Community/posts.php?topic=60232</a>) Quote from: Carbon Dudeoxide on <a href="https://interviewquestions.tuteehub.com/tag/july-244157" style="font-weight:bold;" target="_blank" title="Click to know more about JULY">JULY</a> 23, 2008, 02:15:38 PM</p><blockquote>I did a search online and apparently you can get it here:<br/><a href="http://www.dll-files.com/dllindex/dll-files.shtml?msvcr80">http://www.dll-files.com/dllindex/dll-files.shtml?msvcr80</a><br/><br/>(from here: <a href="http://www.blitzbasic.com/Community/posts.php?topic=60232">http://www.blitzbasic.com/Community/posts.php?topic=60232</a>)<br/></blockquote> <br/>Been there, done that. <br/>I have tried all 6 versions of the DLL from 2 of my computers, as well as that one, and they aren't the right version, <em>or</em> Windows actually isn't reporting the correct error. :/Hmmm....Does it only happen when you run Breakout?<br/>Can you reinstall it?

If VISTA has the <strong>sfc</strong> utility, try running <em>sfc /scannow</em>. Have your VISTA CD available. <br/><br/>Just my 2¢ Why is everyone saying 'my 2¢' Quote from: Carbon Dudeoxide on July 23, 2008, 03:09:52 PM<blockquote>Why is everyone saying 'my 2¢' <br/></blockquote> <br/>Who is everybody? Sidewinder is one poster and considering the recession the US is in, yesterday's nickel is worth 2 cents today.....you just have to pay a dime for it <br/><br/>My only Vista CD is the anytime upgrade; that is all HP gave me. (?)<br/><br/>Anyway, I ran that program:<br/><br/> Code: <a>[Select]</a>C:\Users\Kristopher>sfc /scannow<br/><br/>Beginning system scan. This process will take some time.<br/><br/>Beginning verification phase of system scan.<br/>Verification 98% complete.Windows Resource Protection found corrupt files but wa<br/>s unable to fix some of them.<br/>Details are included in the CBS.Log windir\Logs\CBS\CBS.log. For example<br/>C:\Windows\Logs\CBS\CBS.log<br/>I don't know what this <a href="https://interviewquestions.tuteehub.com/tag/means-236635" style="font-weight:bold;" target="_blank" title="Click to know more about MEANS">MEANS</a>, but at least maybe this explains the bug a bit better. <br/><a href="http://rafb.net/p/l4yrXm58.html">http://rafb.net/p/l4yrXm58.html</a> (last ~1,000 lines from C:\Windows\Logs\CBS\CBS.log)Couldn't find anything in the listing that related directly to MSVCR80.DLL. I would think going forward, DLL's are backward compatible. They may have new functionality but all the old function remains.<br/><br/>I would put the most current version of MSVCR80 into the system32 directory and rebuild your BREAKOUT project. Is that possible? With all the versions of the DLL, it's <a href="https://interviewquestions.tuteehub.com/tag/hard-1015537" style="font-weight:bold;" target="_blank" title="Click to know more about HARD">HARD</a> to tell which one was installed when your project was originally built.<br/><br/> It's still not working, although FWIW, the library that is using the DLL is a .a file; I didn't compile that .a file myself.<br/>I still think it is something other can a missing file; mismanagement of them maybe...

I think it's up to 3.0 or something. not sure.</body></html> | |
