Hi,

OpenRGB doesnt open when i try to start it. It loads for 2 seconds on my mouse, then absoluty nothing happens.

A few days before everything was working fine.

I tried deleting all files and redownloading several times.

I did try to run as admin.

I see no tasks on my task manager related to OpenRGB.

Help would be very appreciated! Thank you :)

      Yeah i did find alle the links your posted myself today, when i researched about the ucrtbase.dll file.

      Sadly it didnt help, i hope i did everything as supposed.

      I did reinstall Microsoft Visual 2019 C++ from the link you posted here, i hope i did corrctly (i used this Link (description: “Permalink for latest supported x64 version. The X64 Redistributable package contains both ARM64 and X64 binaries. This package makes it easy to install required Visual C++ ARM64 binaries when the X64 Redistributable is installed on an ARM64 device.”)

      I also tried every step from the partitionwizard website.

      Thanks, i will check that out and report back.

      I did run OpenRGB as admin the first time. As i said, it used to run perfectly and then one day it just didnt. Dont know what changed.

      I also always do try to run it as admin, when i try top open it again, no help so far.

        I had the same problem not being able to get OpenRGB to run after tried everything above and reinstalled. I don’t know if you still have the problem but here is how I fixed it.

        Deleting the whole openrgb folder does not really uninstall it completely, there is still data like profiles in the appdata/roaming folder. I suppose my problem is one of the profile name I created was not in English, which caused the problem.

        If you still can get it running, maybe try reinstalling again. Delete the whole openrgb folder, and then go to C/users/“yourusername”/AppData/Roaming and delete the openrgb folder there.
