Nomen Posted June 20, 2018 Share Posted June 20, 2018 I'm not sure if this is a kernelex issue or not (and if it is, is this the place to ask) but here goes. On my win-98 system, when I double-click on an .mp3 attachment in an email while using outlook 2000, I am asked if I want to save the file or play it. The file is rendered with a VLC icon in the email, by the way. If I select "play the file" I get a message window with the Title-bar "Error Starting Program". The message says "The libvlccore.dll file is linked to missing export kernel32.dll:CreateTimerQueueTimer." In all other instances when I want to play something with a VLC icon (say, from explorer) there is no problem. I have VLC version 2.0.8 and KernelEx version 4.05.2016.17. Any easy way to fix this?

jumper Posted June 20, 2018 Share Posted June 20, 2018 If the compatibilty mode for vlc.exe is set to default, it usually inherits from Outlook. If you have Outlook set to Disable Kex, also set the Advanced Option: "Don't use these settings in child processes". (Vlc.exe should also be set to the required mode instead of left using the default.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nomen Posted June 20, 2018 Author Share Posted June 20, 2018 Thanks. Setting the kex ignore settings for child processes for outlook.exe fixed the problem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
