Hello,

On some PCs, we are experiencing a random error message when logging into Windows:

"wapt-get.exe - Application Error: The application failed to start correctly (0xc0000142). Click OK to close the application."

Can you help us resolve this issue?

Thank you in advance for your help,
Sincerely,
Céline

Hello,
it sounds like your antivirus software prevented a valid installation. What happens if you type `wapt-get` in a command prompt?
For your information, you have a support contract.
Best regards,
Bertrand
