Title: [Win 7]Wrapper wont start.
Post by: GodEmperor on September 06, 2017, 11:45:29 AM
Okay, so as the subject states.
I cant get Wrapper to start ever since i switched back to Win7.
It always return the error about not having a api-ms-win-core files and then switches to fatal error about python35.dll and error cod 998...

Dependency Walker shows that im missing those files :

What are they ? What do i download to get them all ? Or do i have to download them one at the time from dll sites ?
I have all the common stuff like Net Framework, XNA, Visual C++, DirectX etc, every other game both new and old work fine ( except Distant Worlds which simply crashes on start :( ), only Wrapper refuses to work...

Those DDLs should be delivered over Windows Update long time ago. They are part of Universal CRT.

Well thats weird ..
Your link directs me to Visual C++ 2015 which i already have ...
BUT i searched for Universal CRT and found an update that actually made my Wrapper start.
Thats weird as hell i never had to do that before.
