anniversary-patch-for-owlnext.zip
This file contains full project source code and binaries for a patch for the Windows 10 Anniversary Update issue.
Background: After the Windows 10 Anniversary Update, OWLNext applications may fail to start up with the message "The program can't start because ext-ms-win-gdi-desktop-l1-1-0.DLL is missing from your computer". For more information, see [bugs:#342].
To apply the patch: Copy the given stub DLL into the same folder as the program executable, i.e. the program folder of the application. Two versions of the stub DLL are included for 32-bit and 64-bit applications, respectively.
Win32\Release\ext-ms-win-gdi-desktop-l1-1-0.dll(32-bit)x64\Release\ext-ms-win-gdi-desktop-l1-1-0.dll(64-bit)
Select the version appropriate for your application. Note that you may need administrator privileges to copy the file into the program folder.
Note that this issue was fixed in OWLNext 6.43 and 6.35, so this patch is only applicable to applications using earlier versions.
