I just upgraded to 4.1.12.1798 and now MM refuses to start giving the following error message:

LoadLibrary failed with error 1114: A dynamic link library (DLL)
initialization routine failed.

I tried to go back to the previous version but it fails with the same error. Please let me know how to fix this.

I have the same problem....and I have Windows XP. I had to restore the previous version to restore MM and the ability to read music files.

Capture it in a debug log (step 4b) and send the log to support: http://www.mediamonkey.com/forum/viewto ... ?f=12&t=69

I haven't seen this myself on my XP based system.

i have now realized that the new MM only plays m4a files, although all other files are selected under options. MM will not play mp3s. suggestions?

Windows 10. I believe this is the first MM update since upgrading from Windows 7 to Windows 10.

Is Event Viewer giving any information on it?

No, I can't see anything in Event Viewer.

I have now uninstalled MM and re-installed several previous versions and they all give the same error when MM is invoked. Seems I can no longer run MM on this computer.

I went back and installed the following versions of MM successfully:

4.1.0
4.1.3
4.1.4
4.1.5
4.1.7
4.1.8

Once I installed 4.1.9 then I got the 'LoadLibrary Failed' error. Can anyone say what changed between versions 4.1.8 and 4.1.9 that would cause this error?

You can uninstall MMonkey, and need to clean the Windows registry, I used CCleaner to clean everything was in Windows.Se not aware read a lot about the subject and or search help on CCleaner. After the procedure, reinstall the latest version that was running on your PC. Do not forget, be careful when using the application.

Uninstalled MM 4.1.8 and then ran CCleaner to clean the registry. Installed MM 4.1.13.1799 and MM started! Until I hit the 'Music' tab (it had been on 'Web') then the same 'LoadLibrary Failed' error occurred.

I am back to 4.1.8 again.
