startup error

I am running the latest version of Mega and each time I boot up my computer I get this error message:

Description:
Activation context generation failed for "C:\Program Files (x86)\K-Lite Codec Pack\Tools\GraphStudioNext.exe".Error in manifest or policy file "" on line . A component version required by the application conflicts with another component version already active. Conflicting components are:. Component 1: C:\WINDOWS\WinSxS\manifests\x86_microsoft.windows.common-controls_6595b64144ccf1df_6.0.19041.1110_none_a8625c1886757984.manifest. Component 2: C:\WINDOWS\WinSxS\manifests\amd64_microsoft.windows.common-controls_6595b64144ccf1df_6.0.19041.1110_none_60b5254171f9507e.manifest.

I have removed the pack from my computer and reinstalled but the error remains. This has only started in the last two weeks. I take every update as it comes out to stay current. Any thoughts on this??

You should only get that error when running GraphStudioNext. Plus it has already been fixed in latest version.

If you get it on startup it is really weird, something must be starting GraphStudioNext?

Maybe you have Panda Antivirus? Somebody reported a false positive detection with that. Maybe that triggers the error.

No, I am running ESET Internet Security 15.0.21.0

Does it go away after uninstall?

yes it does, I use the latest version of Revo Pro for the uninstall.

Tools like Revo do more harm than good and can cause unwanted changes. K-Lite uninstaller already removes and cleans everything properly.

Try this version:

Will hopefully be fixed in 16.7.3

Installed the 16.7.3 update yesterday. Did not get the startup error this morning. I will let you know if it comes back.
Thanks
