MSVCR71.dll not found when loading Java applets in Opera?

, ,

After I began to use my old PC with a fresh install of Windows XP(since my Macbook is at Eplehuset getting some new parts, and yes, the PowerBook also died two days later). I've gotten a strange error message every now and then, and Java Applets refuse to respond. And yes! I hunted down the bug and killed it! :sherlock:

Getting this error message when loading a Java Applet in Opera on Windows?


Solution
Close Opera, copy the file (MSVCR71.dll) from C:\Program Files\Java\jre6\bin\msvcr71.dll to C:\Windows\System\ (and of course you have to have Java installed).

Now you should be able to load Java Applets again :cheers:

Get the latest version of Opera at www.opera.com

Update [May 31 2009] - A tip from Sanchit Karve. He wrote in the comments that you could instead of copying the dll file, add (JavaInstallDirectory)\jre6\bin to the Environment Variables. It's a better solution. Thanks for the tip.
