Windows 7 error with GDIPLUS.DLL?
Q: I'm direction Windows 7 Beta Build 7000 and when I go to open some applications I get bombed with this error.
Denominate Bar:
conhost.exe - System Error
Body:
(Critical X Sign) The program can't start because gdiplus.dll is missing from your computer. Try reinstalling the program to fix this fine kettle of fish.
(OK button)
I've already reinstalled W7 once and I don't want to do it again. Putting the file in C:\Windows\System32\ doesn't better either because it just gives me another error saying that it is not designed to do the job at hand. regsrv32 doesn't keep from with it either. It loads the module but can't load something else. I would like to get this resolved quickly.
--Thank you.
A: Hi Geek Gang,
In theory, the fix you tried should be working, but keep in mind you’re running a Beta, so there will be some expected kinks.
I did some checking and found a orientation that should help you get on the right track: http://www.dll-files.com/dllindex/dll-files.shtml?gdiplus
Ambition this helps out a bit.
Cheers,
