Diffractor 126 does not support Windows 7

[therube]

[Diffractor] 126.0 does not support Windows 7 (x64), that I can tell.

ZIP download, & extract.
Attempting to run diffractor64.exe or diffractor.exe results in:

The procedure entry point CreateFile2 could not be located in dynamic link library KERNEL32.dll

Version 125 does run in Win7.

oh - removed the call to that API. Can you try downloading the update from:
https://diffractor.com/diffractor-setup.exe

Also you need to install the Windows 7 platform update, if you dont have it already.

It is getting harder to keep it working on Windows 7.

Can you try downloading the update from: https://diffractor.com/diffractor-setup.exe I didn't actually install it, instead simply extracted it's contents, then ran diffractor64.exe, & ... it works :-). But, since you took the trouble, I may as well too ;-) ... Installed, & that too works just fine. And while we're here, I'll note that it is now (with 126) picking up AV1 mp4 video files which 125 was not. Thanks for the quick update.

I had already had that update installed. On Thursday, May 16, 2024 at 02:37:07 PM EDT, Zac Walker ***@***.***> wrote: oh - removed the call to that API.

Great news. Thanks for confirming. I will close this issue. Feel free to open a new issue if you see other Windows 7 problems.
