Hi,

After update to 1.4.3.22 (x86) I got the error message: "ERROR: Could not initialize ResourceEdit library!"
My OS is Windows 11.

What can I do? With the previous version I never got this error message, as well as with the latest version running under a Windows 10 OS.





Many thanks!
Michael

I dont' have any issue here. How did you update InstallForge? By using the integrated updater or did you manually download the setup and run it?

Hi.

I get the same message on my Windows 10 OS after update to 1.4.3.22. After installation I saw some messages from my virus scan. It is possible, that a .dll is missing?

I found out, that my virus scanner detect a mal/generic-s malware in reseditx86.dll from 1.4.3 release.

I used both: the updater and the setup... and now I found the error: It depends of my Bitdefender AntiVirus.
After deactivating (ohhh my goodness,,,,) Installforge works.

But what have I excluded from scan??? -> it's reseditx86.dll. But how and why??

Please look at this.

Ok - but what to do? What do the Installforge programmers say?

The InstallForge application files do not contain any malware; this is a false-positive. reseditx86.dll is a DLL (dynamic link library) built using Microsoft Visual C++ which provides functionalities to alter application version information for executable files. For the next release of InstallForge, we are going to code-sign this DLL in order to increase the trust of AV solutions.

Same problem on my Windows 10. ESET Antivirus deleted reseditx86.dll.
