I don't know why, but in my Windows 10 VMWare virtual machine, after installing the "Microsoft Visual C++ 2010 Redistributable Package" Spanish language pack (https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=5555), the mentioned DLL is installed in C:\Windows\SysWOW64 When you run Pulseview.exe, Sysinternals' Process Monitor shows that it seems to look for msvcr100.dll in these locations: C:\Program Files (x86)\sigrok\PulseView\MSVCR100.dll C:\Windows\System32\MSVCR100.dll C:\Windows\System\MSVCR100.dll C:\Windows\MSVCR100.dll C:\Program Files (x86)\sigrok\PulseView\MSVCR100.dll C:\ProgramData\Oracle\Java\javapath\MSVCR100.dll C:\Windows\System32\MSVCR100.dll C:\Windows\MSVCR100.dll C:\Windows\System32\wbem\MSVCR100.dll C:\Windows\System32\WindowsPowerShell\v1.0\MSVCR100.dll C:\Program Files\Sysinternals\MSVCR100.dll C:\Python27\MSVCR100.dll If the dll is copied to the fisrt path ( C:\Program Files (x86)\sigrok\PulseView\MSVCR100.dll ) the error doesn't appear any more. I think it would be good for your app looking for the DLL in C:\Windows\SysWOW64 --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- Unfortunately, this doesn't solve completely my problem, as this new error is presented (sorry for being in Spanish), but that is a different issue. - System - Provider [ Name] Application Popup [ Guid] {47BFA2B7-BD54-4FAC-B70B-29021084CA8F} EventID 26 Version 0 Level 4 Task 0 Opcode 0 Keywords 0x8000000000000000 - TimeCreated [ SystemTime] 2018-10-17T08:15:56.045650800Z EventRecordID 16072 Correlation - Execution [ ProcessID] 648 [ ThreadID] 676 Channel System Computer DESKTOP-3VD88JB - Security [ UserID] S-1-5-18 - EventData Caption pulseview.exe - Error de la aplicación Message La aplicación no se pudo iniciar correctamente (0xc000007b).

Created attachment 471 [details] Comparison between tho DLL's
I've resolved the second issue: I've looked for msvcr100.dll in my system. It's located also in the default java path (C:\Program Files\Java\jre1.8.0_92\bin). This java version is identified as 1.8.0_92-b14 The other location is and it is put there by the installer "vcredist_x86.exe" version 10.0.30319.01 If I put that DLL in the Pulseview directory the application runs perfectly. If I put the DLL installed by the microsoft installer, the error 0xc000007b is reported and it fails to launch. I have compared the two DLL and it seems that the JAVA one is newer (although was installed in the system several months ago, precisely from 2016 may 19th). The comparison is attached. The JAVA one is file version 10.0.40219.325 The microsoft one is file version 10.0.30319.1 I don't know what version Pulseview expects, and neither wy microsoft offers in the web a version alder than the Java one, but those are the details in my case.
Hi, it sounds like this might be an issue related to which "Microsoft Visual C++ 2010 Redistributable Package" is used. Previously we only used the x86 version and only documented that in the wiki, but recent versions of libsigrokdecode now require the matching x86 or x64 versions of the "Microsoft Visual C++ 2010 Redistributable Package", depending on which system you use and which PulseView build (32bit or 64bit) you use. The new docs are here: https://sigrok.org/wiki/Windows#I_cannot_start_sigrok-cli_or_PulseView:_error_Oxc0150002 Please let us know if installing the correct one solves your specific issue, then we can close the bug report. Thanks!
Closing, since this seems to be working as expected (see my last comment) and there was no feedback from the reporter. If there are any remaining issues, please feel free to re-open, though.
