Dear Alberto,

I released yesterday a fixed installer:
http://ftp.lyx.de/LyX%202.2.1/
(just install over the existing LyX 2.2.1)

It is not clear to me what happened because I distributed the 32bit DLLs 
of the latest MSVC 2015 version "update 3". For an unknown reason they 
don't work if one doesn't have MSVC 2015 installed. Now i did nothing 
else than to distribute the DLLs of "update 2" as I did for LyX 2.2.0 
and now it seems to work even on Win Vista.


regards Uwe


Possibly wrong libraries on windows binaries

Dear LyX developers

I've just updated to 2.2.1 and it doesn't work on my windows 7 32-bit machine. 
On startup, I get msvcp140.dll is not a valid Windows app or something like 
this.

It seems that you linked LyX against the 64bit version of the MSVC++ runtime 
libraries. Indeed if I run this command on cygwing I get:

$ file /cygdrive/c/Program\ Files/LyX\ 2.2/bin/msvcp140.dll
/cygdrive/c/Program Files (x86)/LyX 2.2/bin/msvcp140.dll: PE32+ executable 
(DLL) (console) x86-64, for MS Windows

I already had the Visual Studio 2015 32-bit redistributable installed on my 
computer, so I renamed mvcp140.dll and vsrunrime14.dll to see what happens but 
I get some scary name-mangling problems (though LyX apparently got started).

Please let me know.

Shall I meanwhile downgrade to 2.1.5?

Thanks
