Hi,

Our PB 2019 executables are throwing following error:

The program can't start because api-ms-win-core-errorhandling-l1-1-1.dll is missing from your computer. Try reinstalling the program to fix this problem.  

Are we missing something? Please help?

Thanks

In Windows 7 machines when we run our executables we get this error however machines having .NET framework and C++ re-distributables it works fine.

We are trying your packager utility to create MSI and install it Windows 7 machine hoping it might resolve the issue.

 

Thoughts?

 

Thanks!

Those files are under C:\Windows\SysWOW64\downlevel or C:\Windows\downlevel in Windows 10.

Either a custom DLL you built or the PowerBuilder runtime is linked to an API set that isn't designed to work on Windows 7.

https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/win32/apiindex/windows-81-api-sets

The PowerBuilder help file has this under System Requirements:

Windows 7 32- or 64-bit with SP1 KB3033929

Check to see if SP1 has been installed.

Hi, I search for the DLL's name and found several hits on what causes similar issues and how to resolve.

NOTE: I can't speak to the validity/quality of content on such pages. Just saying it was fast to find and several sites seem to provide answers.

It is presumably a DLL file that certain O/S files depend on.

Hi Sanjay;

   That's not a PB related DLL. Is that a 3rd party product that your App is calling as an external function declaration maybe?

Regards .... Chris
