INFO: Microsoft Libraries Update: What, Where, Why
The information in this article applies to:
Microsoft Visual Studio 6.0

This article was previously published under Q197298
SUMMARY
This article provides information about the contents of the Microsoft Libraries Update and where you can obtain it.

The Microsoft Libraries Update addresses known binary compatibility problems with certain run-time redistributable files shipped with Visual Studio 6.0 built applications.

This update is for customers who do not have any Visual Studio 6.0 products installed on their computer but have installed applications that include 6.0 libraries. This update will correct problems in the 6.0 libraries but will not modify or replace earlier libraries.

Customers who have installed any Visual Studio 6.0 products such as Visual Basic 6.0 or Visual C++ 6.0 should install the latest Microsoft Visual Studio Service pack, as documented in the following article in the Microsoft Knowledge Base:
194022 INFO: Microsoft Visual Studio Service Packs, What, Where, Why

This Microsoft Libraries Update is localized into eight languages: German, Japanese, French, Italian, Spanish, Korean, Chinese (Simple), and Chinese (Traditional).

NOTE: The Windows Library Updates require a reboot.
MORE INFORMATION
The following list contains all of the files that will be included in the Microsoft Libraries Update.
Filename Version Description
-----------------------------------------------------------------------

Msvcrt.dll 6.00.8337 Visual C++ run-time, no dependencies.

Oleaut32.dll 2.30.4265 Part of the OLE-AUT fileset that
complements Microsoft Foundation Classes
(MFC) and Visual Basic run-time.

Olepro32.dll 5.00.4265 Part of OLE-AUT fileset that complements
MFC and Visual Basic run-time.

Asycfilt.dll 2.30.4265 Part of OLE-AUT fileset that complements
MFC and Visual Basic run-time.

Stdole2.tlb 2.30.4265 Part of OLE-AUT fileset that complements
MFC and Visual Basic run-time.

Mfc42.dll 6.00.8267 Microsoft Foundation Class (MFC),
dependent on Msvcrt.dll, ComCtl32.dll, and
OLE-AUT files.

Mfc42u.dll 6.00.8267 MFC Unicode only for the Windows NT
Platform.

Regsvr32.exe For registration purposes only. For
Mfc42.dll and Oleaut32.dll.

RegTlib.exe For .tlb registration for stdole2.tlb.
What Does This Update Fix?
This update has the new C-Run-time Library DLL, Msvcrt.dll. which resolves the heap compatibility problems described in the following Microsoft Knowledge base articles:
190536 PRB: Invalid Page Fault in Msvcrt.dll

194550 PRB: Freeing Memory Multiple Times May Cause an Access Violation


The cause of the compatibility problems was a change in the internal layout of the way that the C Run-Time library allocates memory. No application should be dependant on this layout, but due to the issues in the previously mentioned articles, they are unknowingly affected by the new heap manager. The new Msvcrt.dll file implements two heap managers, the Visual C++ 5 compatible heap manager and the Visual C++ 6 compatible heap manager. It detects with which Visual C++ version your application is built and uses the appropriate heap manager for that application. If this version is 6.0 or greater, the Visual C++ 6 compatible heap manager is used and if it is earlier than version 6.0,the Visual C++ 5 compatible heap is used.

The following bugs in Visual C++ 6.0 are also fixed in this update:
193099 FIX: CDialog::Create() Returns Incorrect Value Calling EndDialog

193272 FIX: MFC Doesn't Call CPrintDialog::OnInitDialog

193102 FIX: Assert in Appui1.cpp Line 215 in MFC SDI/MDI Application

193100 FIX: CString Serialization Causes Access Violation

192942 FIX: Call to CWnd::MoveWindow Causes Stack Overflow

193509 FIX: Exception When Calling strftime() Function

dmorg,

Finally---

http://msdn.microsoft.com/visualc/productinfo/previous/vc6/articles/smheap/

There's a lot of information to digest there. So here's my thoughts.

I do know that the JDBGMGR.EXE is used for C++ because that's the debugger. But as to using the Runtifix.exe I cannot say. I'm not well versed in the program you are using, but I feel if you persue the currently avenue, you may come up with something. I think also you may want to look at this site

http://msdn.microsoft.com/vstudio/default.asp

You'll also find a link there to MSDN where you may find some help.

Sorry to say I have nothing more technically to offer .

But, I sure hope this helps.

 

Some program you recently installed might have replaced some of the Microsoft VISUAL C++ LIBRARY files (dlls) with older versions. You could try running the System Restore function to get back to a point before the problem began. Someone running WinMe can give you more help with System Restore.

You could also try to return your system to the state it was in with everything working by reinstalling the software that's not working, starting with Fed2001

You could try a Repair of Internet Explorer (or upgrade to Internet Explorer 6 sp1) since that might replace the old dll files with up-to-date versions.

You can try searching your system for all versions of Msvc*.dll - what you want is the MOST recent version in C:\Windows\System. The file version is found by right-clicking the file and selecting Properties, then Version tab. Do NOT go by the file date. REname the older version in Windows\System then copy in the newer version.

I don't think that Windows Libraries Update is going to help too much since the versions mentioned in the article are not that recent I have more up-to-date copies of those files, running Win95b and IE5.5sp2, for example:

Library Update version / My version
Msvcrt.dll 6.00.8337 / 6.00.8397
Oleaut32.dll 2.30.4265 / 2.40.4277
Olepro32.dll 5.00.4265 / 5.0.4277
Asycfilt.dll 2.30.4265 / 2.40.4277
Stdole2.tlb 2.30.4265 / 2.40.4277
Mfc42.dll 6.00.8267 / 6.00.8447.0

Here is a NG post I found that explains the problem in Win98. I don't think Me has SFC - you have System Restore.

You've just discovered why you need to run SFC both before and after every
installation. Many programs simply overwrite the latest files with the older version
that they were originally written and tested with. Strictly speaking, software that
has gained the Windows Logo should check the version before overwriting, but
not many actually do it properly. There's also the problem of incorrect version
numbering - a result of Microsoft releasing the source code to some earlier
versions of common files (duh!). They physically had to rename their files in
order to defeat this problem.

Thus it is up to us - the users - to repair the damage done. If you let it go
too long, it can take several hours to undo all the damage, thus it is important
to keep the SFC logs up to date, and to ensure that all overwritten files are
restored as soon as possible. The SFC logs themselves help greatly in this
task.

If the windows 98 CD contains the latest version of a file, then yes - restore
from there. Otherwise, you'll have to find the latest version from all your
installed software, including the Windows updates. By rights, Microsoft
should have all the latest versions of the common files, however you'll likely
find many programs that can't agree on which is the latest version of their
*own* files (not many, granted, but certainly some). Careful consideration
should be given to which files SFC should be checking, too. If you've installed
programs in obscure places, remember to tell SFC to keep an eye on them
for you.

Note that when a program fails to work with the latest version of a file, you
should place the older version (the one that came with the program) alongside
the program itself. This is actually how Windows Me (the next version of
Windows 9x) will get around the version conflict problem (something they
should never have allowed to happen in the first place). Driver certification
should also help to ensure that Windows 9x finally becomes the stable OS
it pretends to be (although, to be fair, it isn't all that bad when you get on
top of it all and keep the beast tamed).

And thus we've come full circle - instead of a DLL shared amongst many
programs, we've gone back to the days preceding DOS where every
program has its own resources and support files. If you think bloatware
is bad, wait 'til you see mass-file-duplication-ware ;-)

Anyhow, I hope this helps,

Bingo! Works like a charm now! It was the registry key step that did it. I
had tried removing it and reinstalling it in add/remove programs and using
SFC before with no effect.

Thanks!!,
