(And someday Ardour I suppose) I have a copy of mscvr71.dll in Windows/system32, but I have no way of telling whether it was placed there by Windows or some application. On a side note, I find it a bit scary that I have no less than 19 copies of msvcr.dll on this same system scattered all over the place. This wouldnt be so bad if they were just copies of the same file but they are not: 249K - 4 copies 261K - 5 copies 273k - 2 copies 285k - 1 copy 289k - 1 copy 315k - 2 copies 316k - 2 copies (one in system32) 335k - 2 copies (both in a software distribution directory) NOTE: I cannot apply Service Pack 2 on this machine since Pro Tools is not qualified with that yet.) Sorting by date the files run from 2/11/1999 to 8/3/04. Size and date do not follow each other . How can this really work? Does every Windows app use what's in system32 or are they free to call their own private copy of this dll. - Mark _______________________________________________ wine-users mailing list wine-users@xxxxxxxxxx http://www.winehq.org/mailman/listinfo/wine-users
