When I try to run the Qalculate app, nothing appears to happen. In the Windows Applications event log, I see the following:
Faulting application name: qalculate-gtk.exe, version: 0.0.0.0, time stamp: 0x63a024eb
Faulting module name: libglib-2.0-0.dll, version: 2.72.1.0, time stamp: 0x00000000
Exception code: 0x40000015
Fault offset: 0x000aad51
When I navigate to the App\Qalculate subfolder, and run the qalculate-gtk.exe manually, I get the same error event as above. Manually running qalculate-qt.exe pops up an error message "The application was unable to start correctly (0x000007b). Click OK to close the application."
Next: I downloaded the "portable" version from their website, and get the same error as above for qalculate-gtk.exe, but qalculate-qt.exe actually runs!
As an experiment, I copied the DLLs and EXEs from the web version into the PortableApps folder, then edited App\AppInfo\Launcher\QalculatePortable.ini file as follows:
[Launch]
ProgramExecutable=Qalculate\qalculate-qt.exe
This method works, but is there anything else I could have done to make this easier? Perhaps install some kind of VC++ Redistribution set?
Thanks for any suggestions
