Painter 12 won't run because of KernelBase.dll

Post by Dom83 »

Hello

I own two old versions of Corel Painter : 12 and Essentials 7. (I also own 8 and 10 but I lost those CDs)

For some reason they can't start anymore, they crash...

In Windows journal I see that it is related to KernelBase.dll : (sorry it's in french)

I executed
Dism /Online /Cleanup-Image /ScanHealth
and
sfc /scannow
but it did not find anything

I tried to copy KernelBase.dll from another computer, but this file is protected, I can't rename or delete it.

I reinstalled both Painter versions, as well as my graphic card drivers, DirectX, vc++ redistribuables 2008, 2010, 2013...
But they still won't start. :(

Can somebody help please ?

Thanks
