Alright, Im stumped. I have a C++ MFC application that has all these dependencies to these library files. Compiles under MFC Shared DLL and /MDd options with minor warnings only regarding possible loss of data due to conversions. No problem so far, go to run the program and I get the following error:
"This application has failed to start because the application configuration is incorrect. Reinstalling the application may fix this problem."
Reinstall? I compiled and made it on the same machine. Okay, so I checked the dependencies with Dependency Walker and everything was good. Decided maybe Id get some type of reasoning if I ran in debug and it told me to check the event log.
So now Im in the event log with the following error:
"Generate Activation Context failed for C:my.exe.Manifest. Reference error message: The operation completed successfully."
Im unsure how an operation that completed successfully still returns as an error, but if anyone has any insight I would greatly appreciate it.
Thank You in Advance!
