Title: Launch Code::Blocks in Windows XP
Post by: jpl on October 26, 2022, 10:50:15 am

CodeBlocks version: 20.3

I have installed, but on the launch have got an error about procedure kernel32.ReleaseSRWLockExclusive (not found) in DLL api-ms-win-core-synch-l1-1-0.dll

I found api-ms-win-core-synch-l1-1-0.dll in system (12 kb size) and system32 (21 kb) folders, but did not find in CodeBlocks folder. I suppose that CodeBlocks tries to look for in wrong folder or use wrong file.

Excuse me, I do not understand all, because my English is no native. Links for dwnloading zips are broken there.

ReleaseSRWLockExclusive is function from kernel32.dll, so I don't understanda why it
 CodeBlocks try tio find it in other dll.
