Hello everyone,

I'm getting that nasty problem that on computers where (latest) vcredist is not installed, I get error:

Error loading Python DLL: python26.dll (error code 14003)

Now I *HAVE* used python26 branch (branches_py26win-r812.zip), downloaded from http://www.pyinstaller.org/wiki/Python26Win.

The folder Microsoft.VC90.CRT is created all right, with manifest file alongside dlls inside. But it doesn't help.

What's different this time is an error number: it used to be 14001 when packed with main trunk version of pyinstaller, and now it's a different error.

When I install vcredist_x86.exe, it starts working all right. I have no idea what it's doing, but after that my app packed with pyinstaller starts to work. When I uninstall vcredist, it stops working with above message.

Note: this is windows XP (SP 3 and others) where this problem happens.

I really would like to avoid having to start vcredist in silent installation mode in my installer.

I have quite a number of computers with this problem here and I'm willing to test changes in pyinstaller to deal with this stinking winsxs issue if such were forthcoming.
