So here I am just minding my own business wanting to work on my next gen WOW RPG FPS Racing game, so I double click the unity icon. Click Click and there is the dreaded windows error noise. On the error box it read “The Application failed to Initialize properly (0xc0150002). Click OK to terminate the application.” I’ve even tried running it while playing More than a Feeling, Nothing works!
In all seriousness I really want this fixed so if you guys here at the Unity forums could offer some help it would be wonderful. I’ve not been able to use Unity in the last week and I’ve googled the problem multiple times and found nothing that works. So I’ve finally broken down and come here to bug you guys to see if you can help. I’m running Windows Vista Home Premium Service Pack 1 (When I try to update to SP 2 it fails(Yes I know I am having quite a few problems)) Yes I know Vista root of all evil, scourge of the planet, but the computer isn’t worth the upgrade to 7 and I would rather save up for a new PC (Or Mac haven’t decided(Probably a Mac)).
That’s for the Vista root of all evil comment. I like Vista. Don’t bother with a Mac, you’ll turn into an iDrone and need to constantly make iMonies to pay back your iLoan for the out of date iDoorstop. Also, OS X falsly advertises a time machine, but I’ve yet to make it take me back in time, all it does it back things up. Don’t bother with Windows 7. It’s HASBRO’s first Operating System, only missing the small parts that choke annoying children and people in their 70’s.
Anyway by the sounds of it there is a serious issue going on if you’re having trouble installing SP2. Usually it’s a good idea to simple backup what you can, reformat and reinstall from scratch, make sure all your drivers are up to date, install everything bit by bit and keep running checks to make sure the system is stable, before even beginning to reinstall the apps themselves.
Try googling “The Application failed to Initialize properly (0xc0150002)” including quotes. I’m getting quite a few hits here (34,800 results to be exact). Switch to google.com if you’re using something like .co.uk or other random TLD nobody likes.
