Windows 10: Side by Side errors causing downloaded program files to not open Microsoft.VC90.MFC *SOLVED

I wanted to share how I fixed this problem on my pc running Win 10 home 64 bit since after dealing with it for some time I never found this as an option. Originally I had this error on half my programs and fixed it. I had trouble running DISM (probably cause it's an exe) . Unfortunately I'm not sure how I got it to go but it repaired the issue.


DOWNLOADING ALL THE C++ AND NETFX'S DID NOTHING.


A couple weeks later I downloaded a utility program (from the website) that I liked on my Win 8 pro laptop .


When I tried to open it I got the popup saying the side by side configuration was wrong. I went to control panel, Administrative tools, event viewer which opens to the overview & summary page. In the top box "summary of admin events" I opened/expanded "error" Then scrolled down to #35 side by side. Double click on that and there will be the cause of your problem.It may be different than mine. Not sure why they don't allow you to cut n paste that info but if you look to the right you'll see a "copy" link , inside a "save as text". (I will post my error results at the end of this)

SAVE yourself a lot of time,go check the error log first! If it's not running/working go to services and turn it on. Then try to open the program again. This will put the error in the "new" log.



Basically for me the Microsoft.VC90.MFC.MANIFEST version in the program was different from the one my system was requesting (9.2 instead of 9.3)

To fix it I simply opened the program file, opened the MFC manifest in notepad and changed it to the correct version number. Of course it wouldn't allow me to put it back in so I saved it to the desktop,deleted the original MFC manifest (still in the prog file) then drag n dropped the modified one in which it then allowed. It does say it required admin rights or something like that but I hit ok and it completed the move. If you have tighter restrictions it could be an issue. I'd suggest opening the prog file as an Admin and retrying



Anyway, I clicked on the desktop link and the program opened right up. One thing to note; there were two VC90 manifests in the program one was the MFC the other CRT so make sure you pick the correct one. I'm certainly no expert at this so anyone that is feel free to add,correct or clarify.

Hope this is of some help!

BTW The program files were about 50/50 dated 2017 & 2019. I deleted the program, ran ccleaner, re installed a fresh downloaded copy, restarted it again so I tend to think the error was in the program as opposed to old files still in my PC.

Microsoft to release File Sharing program

Avalanche as it is code-named will be Microsoft's own file-sharing application.

Microsoft unveiled the program at an open house at Cambridge Univeristy in the UK. The project is the company's own take on popular p2p services such as BitTorrent.

While MS's is using a different backend than BitTorrent, they are both used for essentially the same purpose-- the distribute large files between multiple users.

A spokesman for Microsoft said, however, there will be no naughtiness in Avalanche: "It includes strong security to ensure content providers are uniquely identifiable and to prevent unauthorised parties from offering content for download"
