Thread: "Application unable to start correctly (Oxc000007b)

Click ok to close the application."

This happens at launch. Am on a 64 bit Windows 7 new computer. It took 8 attempts to download the programme and now says this.


Top of the box says TurbineLauncher.exe

I've uninstalled MacAfee and allowed Windows firewall full access etc.

Any help much appreciated. Been trying to get into Lotro for 12 days now...

Sorry to hear that you're having trouble getting into the game.

Did you use the Turbine Download Manager to get the game? There are a lot of problems associated with TDM, but I've never used it, so I don't have any actual help to offer on that front.

You COULD try launching the game as an Administrator. Click the START button, then GAMES then right-click on LOTRO and select Run As Adminstrator.

You might also try turning off UAC (http://windows.microsoft.com/en-US/w...trol-on-or-off)

Also - check out this thread (http://forums.lotro.com/showthread.php?t=18699) for some tips on getting better help.

Good luck!

Thank you. I tried all those ideas without luck. Even turned off all firewalls etc. so many people say the TDM is buggy. It is very frustrating that they make customers "suffer" like this.

Is there any other way to download except buying another copy of the game?

Nothing in the FAQ with that error code. Searching the internet, looks like it could be a registry error, or a problem with the libraries (Visual C++, .NET, etc).

Anything I can do if either of those please?

Well, if it's an issue with .NET or Visual C++ (corrupted file more than likely) then you need to uninstall it and then reinstall it to correct it.

If it's a registry issue, then you'll need to be extremely careful if you decide to make manual changes to it or you will do more harm. Read the instructions on making the changes and understand them before attempting the change. You'll need to search the internet and do some research on the issue you're having to determine if the website you're looking at is really for the issue you're having.

Thank you. Sounds sufficiently risky to make me look elsewhere for mmorging. I appreciate your help.
