Coual.exe Error Window **SOLVED**
Fall_Guy:
I will in-install ALL my VC C++files and reinstall ALL latest versions. However the error window clearly states: coual.exe - Bad image, and when I delete ALL your Addon manager files and launch P3Dv4 I do NOT see the error window. If I then re-install Addon Manager and start P3Dv4 ...... bang the Error window is back.
As I said I will remove and re-install my current VC ++ files, but all my PC is up to date and there's very few programs on the system as it is a stand alone for Flight Sim ONLY.

It doesn't say just that.
It says "couatl.exe - Bad image c:\windows\system32\msvcp140.dll is either not designed to run on windows or it contains an error", the bad image the message is referring to is NOT Couatl.exe, it's msvcp140.dll instead", and the meaning of the error message is that the OS, when trying to load Couatl.exe, found that a system library named msvcp140.dll, which is required by it, has a problem, and notified you of this.

Simply because you don't have another addon that requires the SAME version of the VC++ runtime that, on YOUR system has a problem.

Hi there,
Have now removed/un-installed every Microsoft C++ redistributable, from my system and restarted. Having then downloaded and re-installed manually the most current C++ files, It appears that the conflicting file was indeed a C++ file. In my case the following file was the culprit:
Microsoft visual C++ 2013 redistributable (86)
Anyhow the Addon manager has now installed correctly and I'm now able to use my FSDT products.
Many Thanks Umberto
