VSShellStub2.exe - System Error


What are the prerequisites to be installed in a Target machine for running the application developed using Microsoft Visual studio Isolated Shell 2013.

In a fresh Win7 SP1 64bit machine, I have installed Microsoft Visual studio Isolated Shell 2013 Redistributable package.

But i got an error when starting the application

VSShellStub2.exe - System Error

The program can't start because MSVCR120D.dll is missing from your computer. Try reinstalling the program to fix this problem.

Do i need to install any other application to make it work?


Solution

  • Finally i found out the issue,

    Visual studio Isolated Shell Redistributable package is not including debug version for c(Msvcr120d.dll) and C++(Msvcp120d.dll ) run time. So application should be build in release mode to make it working in a fresh system with VS Isolated Shell Redistributable package
