There are many users who faced the"load of plugin failed with #126: the specified module could not be found" or a similar error when trying to use a dll.
The cause of this error may be one of the following:
The dll is not present in the program's plugins directory The dll name is misspelled ".NET framework" is not installed on your system (.NET based dlls) Missing "borlndmm.dll" from your system (Delphi based dlls) Missing "msvcp60d.dll" from your system (VC based dlls) Missing "msvcrtd.dll" from your system (VC based dlls) Missing "DNBridge.dll" from program's main directory.
Before you post about any dll error please check your system to fit the above requirements

Perhaps plugin makers could indicate the pre-requisites needed for using their dlls? Most people new to Smartie, including myself, assume that as long as LCDSmartie is installed and working, then adding a plugin should work too.

This wouldn't be an issue if plugin writers included details about the pre-requisites for their plugins.
I don't want to get on the bad side of you plugin writers, cos you are doing a fantastic job. But getting your plugins to work as designed could be made a bit easier by saying we need x-number of extra files installed.
This is a good point.
Most of help files (readme.txt) have a notice about the requirements... I think so
But there are two more things to consider: There are many users who don't read the txt files Creators may not awared about the requirements... their systems already have the required files istalled to their systems and they don't facing any problem on tests

The most common reason for this is caused by the dll structure... The dll isn't builded using the LCD Smartie plugins format.

I found out the problem the plugin was punctuation was incorrect EX:
I had MizookLCD where it should have been mizookLCD.DLL

All the above plugins are tested by me personally. There is no problem with plugins.
It's your system. Missing files, runtimes etc. If you need help, ask for help
I'm sorry to bump this thread, as it hasn't seen any new posts in a while. I've checked, rechecked, installed, and reinstalled all of the possible DLL's and runtimes, but Limbo, I cannot seem to get ANY of your plugins to work. The ones in question are Search And Replace (sandr.dll), and WarnIf (warnif.dll). So far, I have not been able to make either work, but I know they do, as I've seen video and pictures online of those specific plugins.
What error message is returned? Please give all details!
As Caesar said 2.0 works fine. But as far as I know the latest framework can cover the needs on the system (e.g. v 3.5).
In any case installing the .NET framework on your system is essential nowdays. There are lot of applications based on the latest .net package and keeping your system updated is a good idea.
EDIT: I'm coding always using the latest version of Visual Studio. So the newest plugins of mine may requires the latest version of .NET framework. This applies to updated plugins also.
Like I've said, I have all available versions of the .NET Framework installed, and I'm STILL getting the 126 error. The one talked about in this thread.

Please raise a new thread (to split this error from the sticky post) about this specific error with the line syntax and an error screenshot if its possible...
I'm pretty sure that we can solve this issue.
I have all the dll 's
i have framework 3.5
everest running( the option about the registry is checked)
and nothing works. All the commands i tried show the same error(126). What is wrong??
Also at the shut down, the message that i have put doesnt apear (only the first line from 4) and lines 2,3,4 show other things
Also hotmail doesn't work.I suppose something with the SSL number

Please verify that all the dlls (lcd smarte plugins) are placed under the LCDSmartie\plugins folder
