I'm sure this is just my system causing this issue, but I get the following errors with KERNELBASE.dll when trying to start Chameleon.exe. Windows 10, 10.0.1.19044

I've tried re-registering KERNELBASE.dll and done an SFC check that hasn't resolved anything. Tried with Windows defender on/off etc.

 

Any ideas? I'm not getting any issues as far as I can see from other applications, but doesn't mean much imo.

 

Regards

Edit:
I uninstalled Chameleon completely including midi driver. Rebooted Windows, re-installed Chameleon, rebooted and it opens one time after the fresh install. As soon as I try and start Chameleon again, it doesn't open and the application logs the above error each time. It seems the KernalBase.dll and XamlParseException error is quite common problem with applications not starting on Windows but haven't found a solution yet : (

@savethehuman5 I think this is actually because I have Visual Studio IDE installed and various SDKs. I've had various strange issues with music software like this before and it's nearly always due to the SDKs & Visual Studio screwing something up that's impossible to work out and fix. Rather than waste days of our lives, I've reinstalled Windows without Visual Studio or any SDKs and Chameleon opens and closes just fine now. (Have requested new licence activation due to new windows version I assume). Regards!

OK I can confirm there is a bug, cant determine why affect some user and why other no, but have some relative clear idea.
Your post result in a very useful guide to reach the proper way to address this.
Working on it now.

I mark this post as solved, anyway there is a new version can handle issue like this.
Unfrotunately the clean install delete the chance of debug.
If same issue back the tool inside of software should show the error instead a crash, with some info useful for me to debug.
Will see in the future.

@savethehuman5 Great work, I will let you know how I get on. For now I don't need Visual Studio, but will have to install it again in a couple of week I think, so will let you know. Thanks!
