What happened?

Well, I was trying to run latest (2.14.3) exe version but then it crashes with

"Can't run program 'cause api-ms-win-core-path-l1-1-0.dll is missing"

(Запуск программы невозможен, так как на компьютере отсутствует api-ms-win-core-path-l1-1-0.dll. Попробуйте переустановить программу. )

I tried to get dll from some shady "dllwiki" sites, but no luck, not sure if that dll was real or correct one. Just using python script now.

Maybe I missing some windows updates, not sure.

Release version

YTSpammerPurge.2.14.3.exe

Steps to reproduce

  1. Run EXE on my PC
  2. It crashes

What platform are you seeing this problem on?

Windows (.exe file)

Relevant log output

Transalation: The program cannot be started because api-ms-win-core-path-l1-1-0.dll is missing from the computer. Try reinstalling the program.

As stated in #502:

I updated to 3.8, now have to rename it back, restart, and check again. Maybe later, in my evening, 20-22 UTC+3

Yes, please try running the new version.

I don't know how would look exact same error message in English. I did some rough translation right in issue: "Can't run program 'cause api-ms-win-core-path-l1-1-0.dll is missing"

SoNickRND avatar Feb 03 '22 12:02 SoNickRND

Well, this update of Python doesn't related to "missed dll for exe" issue, I suppose.

Thanks even with my transalation it says more or less the same thing, but the transalation I gave wont be the error message displayed if the computer was in English, yours seems to be more like it.

@SoNickRND I see in the background Windows Powershell is opened, are you running the .exe file via powershell? Why not just double tab the exe and open it?

KendallDoesCoding avatar Feb 03 '22 12:02 KendallDoesCoding

Well, this update of Python doesn't related to "missed dll for exe" issue, I suppose.

Yeah, I thought you were downloading the latest release of this project

https://github.com/ThioJoe/YT-Spammer-Purge/releases/tag/v2.14.3

KendallDoesCoding avatar Feb 03 '22 12:02 KendallDoesCoding

that is because you use Windows 7 and dll is only from Windows 8. as Windows 7 is officially discontinued - for most users that should not be a problem.

Kurdakov avatar Feb 03 '22 12:02 Kurdakov

Well that's annoying coz I believe most people still didnt upgrade from Windows 7 to Windows 8 and above, ig now is the time for you to upgrade @SoNickRND lol

KendallDoesCoding avatar Feb 03 '22 12:02 KendallDoesCoding

Maybe later, to Debian, when MS shutdown all those fancy automatic driver download infra. :D Still, Python script is working on Win7 :)

Yes, running the python script a option but your getting a error there too #502 and Debian doesnt seem to be working #491

Created a PR adding a disclaimer messege in README #521

@SoNickRND But don't worry about it, I think ThioJoe will be able to fix #502

Can you see if running the python version works and maybe just use that?

I could at some point see if it's possible to include the dll inside the exe, but I'd have to make sure it has stayed the same all the way since windows 8

Your telling him to run the new python version? v3.10.0? or to run the python version of this project?

3.10 not working with win7 too. 3.8 does. Maybe 3.9

I have this patch installed, tried with new purger 2.16.2, same error.

What's odd is on Windows 11 at least, I don't even seem to have that file at all anyway. If I can find an official copy of the file I could try making the exe with the file included

Managed to work in python. But when I convert it to exe. It refuse to work.

fluentmoheshwar avatar Jul 10 '22 15:07 fluentmoheshwar

The problem is the current version of python isn't compatible with windows 7.

fluentmoheshwar avatar Jul 10 '22 15:07 fluentmoheshwar

Yea probably not much I can do for this
