I cannot run avogadro v1 on windows 10/11. At first step, the error was “the code execution cannot proceed because msvcp100.dll was not found. reinstalling” I added msvcp100.dll into SysWOW64 because my arch is 64 bit. Now I take this error which is " The error is the application was unable to start correctly (0x000007b)" Avogadro 2 does is not useful software as same as version1. So I do not want to use version 2.
I hope you can help me.
Best wishes

Experiment a) Does Windows 11 (still) have a mode to run an application as 32bit program? Earlier releases (if I remember correctly, including Windows 8.1; so far did not use Windows 11) allowed to run these in a dedicated compatibility mode while the host run in 64bit.
Experiment b) If the computer you use posses enough RAM, maybe you can use a WSL interface and subsequently run avogadro 1 in a docker/container mentioned in the forum, or use an old Linux distribution including old Avogadro 1 (e.g., Xubuntu 18.04 LTS/bionic). It equally is possible to “burn” the Linux image on a USB thumb drive, then you can get familiar with this OS without permanent change to the hosting computer, or to install it side-by-side (double boot) to Windows, too.
