Hi,

FYI, I just had today the same startup error message when trying to run 
LyX 2.2.1 on Windows 7 Professional. LyX 2.1.x versions were running fine.

I installed 2.2.1 with "LyX-221-Installer-2.exe".

Following the discussion in this bug report_
http://www.lyx.org/trac/ticket/10206
I went to:
https://www.microsoft.com/en-US/download/details.aspx?id=48145
downloaded and installed "vc_redist.x86.exe" and now LyX runs fine.

Best regards,

Olivier.

Emile,

please keep the newsgroup in the loop.

That statement does not make sense, are you telling us that each of
the 22 small documents takes long to load into LyX?

I.e. you load the master document and then right click onto the link
of a sub document and then click on Edit?

Or do you mean making a PDF?

I would very strongly agree with Jean-Marc to send *HIM*, ie the LyX
authors the whole document(s) so they can see what the cause is.

I also would strongly suggest you upgrade your Windoze to 10 if you
can't switch to a proper computer like a Mac or a Linux box.

I would guess the reason it takes so long is because of the lyx2lyx
conversion. As a rule, we iterate through the entire document for every
single format change, often searching for regex matches as we do so.

Is this one yuuge document or one with many includes?

It is also possible that the second time the load is faster.
(For instance because the needed latex packages are now uptodate)

Can you share this document (at least privately)? It happens sometimes 
that we add quadratic behavior that is only made visible when a document 
is _really_ large.
