#2 Installer putting executable in Start Menu

[Glen Aultman-Bettridge]

I installed AutoIT v3 and recorder. When I tried to
launch recorder, a dialog came up, saying, "The
application has failed to start because MSVCP71D.dll
was not found. Re-installing the application may fix
this problem. After running Setup.exe again, the same
error occurred.

I missed a critical step: I was launching from the Start
menu. It looks like the recorder executable was copied into
the start menu rather than a shortcut. Once I put a shortcut
to the exe, it worked correctly

There are 3 files that need to be copied to the
windows\system32 directory msvcp71d.dll, msvcr71d.dll, and
mfc71d.dll.

This problem can be easily fixed by the end-user for now. All you have to do is right click on "AutoItRecorder" in the start menu and delete it. Then go to where you installed AutoItRecorder (ex: C:\AutoIt3\Recorder) then right click on "AutoItRecorder", then the "Send To" menu and select the "Desktop (create shortcut)" option.

From there drag the shortcut to the "Start" menu and while still holding down the mouse button drag it over "All Programs" then over "AutoIt v3" once that menu opens drag the mouse into that menu and release the left button. This will drop the shortcut into the "AutoIt v3" menu. From there you can click on "AutoItRecorder" to launch "AutoItRecorder".
