New here. Cant open software...Please help

Postby Admoore1024 » Thu Jul 04, 2019 12:06 am

I just got my titan 2. I tried to download the gtuner iv software and I'm getting a side-by-side config error. I've scoured YouTube and other sources for a solution with no luck. Downloaded an all-in-one visual c++, 32 and 64 bit. Im on 64 bit win10. I've gone into registry editor and checked the x86 policy 9 to make sure i have the numbers matching. Ive even reset my pc and reinstalled windows. Still cant open

Can you post the exact error message you're getting?

The application has failed to start because its side-by-side configuration is incorrect.

Is this "Downloaded an all-in-one visual c++, 32 and 64 bit" you installed something official from microsoft ?
Using third person created packs have a good chance to mess up a system.

My win 10pro / 64bit lists these as installed:
Microsoft Visual C++ 2012 Redistr. (x64) - 11.0.6103
Microsoft Visual C++ 2012 Redistr. (x86) - 11.0.6103
Microsoft Visual C++ 2013 Redistr. (x64) - 12.0.30501
Microsoft Visual C++ 2013 Redistr. (x86) - 12.0.30501
Microsoft Visual C++ 2017 Redistr. (x64) - 14.16.27024
Microsoft Visual C++ 2017 Redistr. (x86) - 14.16.27024

I tried downloading gtuner iv again so i can recreate all of the nessages that pop up. The first one is a blue screen that says " Windows Defender Smartscreen has prevented an unrecognized app from starting. Running this app may put your PC at risk". The only option i get is "don't run", but when i click "more info", i get an option to click "run anyway". So i run the app and the side-by-side error pops up or i get the message: "Windows could not complete the extraction. The destination file could not be created". When i look at the event log, the text says:
"Activation context generation failed for C:\Users\moore\AppData\Local\Temp\Temp3_GtunerIV(1)zipGtuner.exe" Dependent assembly lib, processorArchitecture="amd64",type="win32", version="25.8.0.32" could not be found

You are trying to unpack the zip before running it right ? Do not try to run the .exe from within the zip.
I don't use the explorer for that..I use 7zip for all my zip/archive handling and to unpack gtuner iv.
I don't use Windows Defender, I use some other security software.
Looks like you need to be kind to your defender to get it to accept gtuner iv.

Thank you. I downloaded 7zip, downloaded gtuner again and at first, it seemed to do the same thing but when i ran as administrator, it finally worked!!!

So you right clicked the GtunerIV.zip and extracted the files with 7zip?
