Indeed: Building trunk of today fails on Windows: Error: Invalid DLL C:\WINDOWS\system32\common.dll, invalid header size Sat, Aug 21, 11:35 PM fpc-devel ML Here's how I managed to fix it. === Finally good news. In taskmanager I had to stop one process,then go to services, find xtu3service.exe, right-click, then "open services", find that service again (now called XTUOCDriverService) in the newly opened window, right-click, select properties, then set Startup type (? "Opstart type") to Disabled. After a reboot I was able to rename that common.dll to _common.dll, rebooted again. All this as administrator of course. Finally after all that I was able to build fpc for 32-bit. === And if that does not work maybe this can help? Looking with Windows Explorer at the Common.dll in question: Productname: Intel(R) Extreme Tuning Utility The guide on how to remove this utility: https://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/support/articles/000032459/processors/processor-utilities-and-programs.html That unfortunately did not work for me, hence the solution above. At least it may give you some clues where to start. -- Bart _______________________________________________ fpc-devel maillist - fpc-devel@lists.freepascal.org https://lists.freepascal.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/fpc-devel
