Re: Application cannot be started. contact the application vendor error

I've tried uninstalling and it won't even allow that. this error has only occurred with alt1. nothing else. i've even tried to brute uninstall and that seems to do nothing at all. kind of stuck on this one, and i don't want to have to reformat just to get this running.

Managed to fix this on my own after around 6 hours of working on it and fiddling around.

Please tell us how you fixed it, many people are having similar problems and I can't really help as it's happening outside of alt1.
