Thank you so much. Installing ipv6 really solved the problem for me, too.
Thanks again
Visual C++ Runtime Library Error
Re: Visual C++ Runtime Library Error
Installing ipv6 has had no effect for me, I still cannot get Deluge to even load.

do you mean unable to load without crashing or just straight unable to load?Tuppence wrote:Installing ipv6 has had no effect for me, I still cannot get Deluge to even load.

Re: Visual C++ Runtime Library Error
I don't understand the difference? Deluge installed with seemingly no problem, but loading the program results in the runtime error, so it has never run. I am a card-carrying techno-idiot, so I have no clue how to make this work.do you mean unable to load without crashing or just straight unable to load?

Re: Visual C++ Runtime Library Error
He was saying that it may be that you need to delete a configuration file, the file is located in different places depending on if you have linux or windows.
Did you try that part to see if it works now?In Linux, you can fix this by typing `rm ~/.config/deluge/persistent.state` in a command prompt. In Windows, you can fix this by deleting C:\Documents and Settings\[User Name]\Deluge\persistent.state. This will remove all of your torrents, but don't freak out; you can reload them and Deluge will continue from where it left off. By default the torrent files are saved to ~/.config/deluge/torrentfiles/ in Linux and C:\Documents and Settings\[User Name]\Deluge\torrentfiles\ in Windows.
Re: Visual C++ Runtime Library Error
I did see that, and I have no torrents to lose as the program has never run ... but I don't know how to do that. I'm using Windows XP. I think I'm out of my depth.
Re: Visual C++ Runtime Library Error
Open explorer, most likely thats what you use to browse through your files on the hard drive etc...
Navigate to C:\Documents and Settings\[User Name]\Deluge, where [User Name] is your current account you're using.
You should see a file in that folder called 'persistent.state' all you have to do is delete it... either highlight it and press the delete key, or right-click and select delete, or drag it to the recycle bin.
Anything else I forgot?
Oh, it might also work to use cmd to delete the file, it's a little more complex. Open it by going to start and run... type cmd.exe and press Ok.
At the prompt type: cd "deluge"
Press Enter, then type del persistent.state
Press Enter and it should be deleted.

Re: Visual C++ Runtime Library Error
I have something called "prefs.state", would that be it? It's the only thing that even resembles 'persistent.state'.
Going on faith that it is what I think, I deleted it but Deluge still will not load.

Re: Visual C++ Runtime Library Error
Hmm, try the old re-download and reinstall...
Re: Visual C++ Runtime Library Error
Oh boy. This 2nd attempt failed during setup -- some dll error, I dunno -- so I'll try again.
