Title: Crash on first launch
Post by: MarcoAlting on October 03, 2017, 09:29:09 AM
Hi,

I'd love to try Instant Terra, but it crashes on first launch. I tried to install the Visual studio and .NET packages, but since I already use Visual Studio 2017, the installation of the packages are stopped because I already have newer versions.

Is there a way to get it to launch with the newer versions of the packages?

Thanks.

Hi Marco,

You might have an issue similar to the one mentioned here: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/17980178/cannot-load-counter-name-data-because-an-invalid-index-exception.

Can you try this:

If when you run:
C:\windows\system32> lodctr /r
you get the error
Error: Unable to rebuild performance counter setting from system backup store, error code is 2
then you instead need to run
C:\windows\SysWOW64> lodctr /r
after which you should get
Info: Successfully rebuilt performance counter setting from system backup store
Note this has to be done as administrator.

Then try to run Instant Terra again.
