I use an e-mail client called The BAT from RITLABS and have done so for many years but just recently after windows performed an update when I run the aforementioned program a pop up box appears towards the end of the program loading saying that "C:\WINDOWS\system32\mlang.dll is either not designed to run on Windows or it contains an error. Try reinstalling the program again using to original installation media or contact your system administrator or the software vendor for support. Error status 0xc0000020."


Needles to say I have contacted the software vendor RITLABS but they say it's a Windows problem, I am in essence the administrator of this particular machine so I can't resolve the issue myself, I have tried several times to reinstall the program and use the 'repair' option but nothing has corrected the issue which just leaves the program hanging until I click on the error pop up box 'OK' every time it appears which is about five times before it closes down.


Is there a known issue with this particular DLL or is it possible to copy another mlang.dll file from somewhere else and see if that fixes the fault, if either of these options are not feasible can anyone suggest how I get out of this quandary.


I do have another old Windows 10 machine that will run this e-mail program on BUT it's a much older machine that has failed to update since 2017 due to Microsoft issuing a newer version of Win10 that was proven to be incompatible with this machine so this is not a long term solution for me.


I do hope someone out there can help with this, pleeeeeese.
