I'm trying to learn C++, but my Visual C++ won't load any projects. I've heard of ways to fix this, but I can't seem to find them posted or given out anywhere. I'm coming here for some real help on this, because I want to start coding C++ and move up from C# and VB. This is all that's stopping me. Thanks in advance, and here's the full error:

"The specified module could not be found. (Exception from HRESULT: 0x8007007E)"

I need to know what to change where. I've heard it's an outdated DLL that microsoft is too damned lazy to fix.

Once again, thank you for any help.

Easy Fix: Download Code::Blocks.

Easy fix.. Uninstall visual studio
redownload/reinstall or download microsoft visual studio 6.0

Try another compiler/IDE like Code::Blocks or Dev-C++.

Make sure you have the CRT (C Run-time Library) version installed to be the same as on your development box.

I've decided to use Dev-C++ which I've found after searching on the internet for an alternative. I've also found that I can use the "Win32 Project" option to create a DLL and console applications.
