Regarding the Error "The System could not execute the specified Program"

36 New Member
Hi,
I am working on C#. We have a tool called WHOST.exe which is a VC++ MFC application. Recently I modified the application and regenerated the WHOST.exe in Visual Studio 2008. If i open the WHOST.exe in my system it is working but if i open the WHOST.exe in my friend's system its not opening through commnad prompt or by double clicking the WHOST.exe. If i open the WHOST.exe through command prompt it is saying that " The system cannot execute the specified program". If i double click the WHOST.exe a error message is appearing which says "This application has failed to start because the application configuration is incorrect.Reins talling the application may fix the problem". Can any one help me regarding this aspect.

This is a better question for the C/C++ people. Something is wrong/missing on your friends computer. Possibly just missing the MFC DLLs?
I will move it over to there.

As Plater said, it's most likely an issue of missing DLLs. You can use Dependency Walker to figure out which ones are missing. Most likely the CRT and MFC dlls.
