Why does K-Meleon refuse to run on my system?
Your system may be missing some “Microsoft runtime libraries required to run applications developed with Visual C++”. Those dll’s are not included in the ZIP/7Z versions of KM. Usually they exist already on newer systems, but uninstalling another program may have removed them. KM 1.5.x needs: msvcp71.dll and msvcr71.dll Just put the 2 dll’s into the K-Meleon root folder. You can download it from some DLL files download sites, like for example: DLL-files.com (or see below) KM 1.6 needs: msvcp80.dll and msvcr80.dll Older system like Win98SE: put them into the K-Meleon root folder. KM1.6 may run with KernelEx on Win98/ME, but officially those systems are only supported up to KM 1.5.4. Newer systems like Vista: you must install those dll’s globally (see link to Microsoft VS2005 here or Alain’s mini-version) Unless you install the vcredist, you may find those dll’s elsewhere in your programs folder or another computer, in internet dll-archives, or extract them from the “installer”-version o
