wyUpdate Error 0xc000007b

Hi,

Some our users (probably only about 2%) are reporting this error when our application tries to auto-update:

wyUpdate.exe - Application ErrorThe application was unable to start correctly (0xc000007b). Click OK to close the application.

If they run wyUpdate.exe stand-alone everything updates correctly.

Any ideas on the cause. What inside wyUpdate throws or causes this error code?

Thanks

Hey Andrew,

This sounds like a problem that happened on pre-v2.6.14 versions of wyUpdate. Version 2.6.14 of wyUpdate doesn't hard crash, it shows an error. Version 2.6.15 of wyUpdate will no longer produce this error.

Hi Sam,

When will 2.6.15 be released?

This wyUpdate Error 0xc000007b hard crash is happening with ver 2.6.14

Sorry I thought this was one of our other start-crashes (that will be fixed in 2.6.15).

I can't reproduce this one you're talking about. Can you reproduce it? Or can we schedule a time with one of your customers to remotely see this behavior?

One more question: are you using a custom version of wyUpdate -- that is, have you modified the source of wyUpdate?

Its the stock wyUpdate binary from this site, not modified in any way.

We'll try to get a error log or way to reproduce it from our customer.
