Hi,

OpenRGB doesnt open when i try to start it. It loads for 2 seconds on my mouse, then absoluty nothing happens.

A few days before everything was working fine.

I tried deleting all files and redownloading several times.

I did try to run as admin.

I see no tasks on my task manager related to OpenRGB.

Help would be very appreciated! Thank you :)

Hi, thanks for your answer! You helped my already: I checked th Application event log and it gives following error when i try to run OpenRGB: "faulting module name: ucrtbase.dll"

I googled a lot already and tried to fix this: rapaired visual c++, reinstalled visual c++ etc. Sadly nothing helped.

I know this is now probably more of an windows problem then OpenRGB problem. Maybe you can help me anway or redirect me, to where i mind find help with this problem.

Thanks so much! Regards.

What windows version?

What version of openrgb?

Also is your version 64 bit or 32 bit?

Maybe it's a version mismatch with visual c++ runtime? I'm guessing here.

I'll search and update here later.

Possibly of help

https://www.partitionwizard.com/disk-recovery/ucrtbase-dll.html

Might be worth the reading the install docs again.

Sounds like you have to run as admin the first time. Microsoft recommends the latest version for apps built with Visual 2019 at the link below. You'd want to match OpenRGB X64 pre-built binaries to X64 visual C++ runtime found here

Yeah i did find alle the links your posted myself today, when i researched about the ucrtbase.dll file.

Sadly it didnt help, i hope i did everything as supposed.

I did reinstall Microsoft Visual 2019 C++ from the link you posted here, i hope i did corrctly (i used this Link (description: "Permalink for latest supported x64 version. The X64 Redistributable package contains both ARM64 and X64 binaries. This package makes it easy to install required Visual C++ ARM64 binaries when the X64 Redistributable is installed on an ARM64 device.")

I also tried every step from the partitionwizard website.
