The application failed to initialize properly (0xc0150002)

Hi Everyone so i followed the guide below to get my Visual Studio 2010 to work with libcurl & Windows 7.

Link 1 Link 2

However i am facing the above stated error:

The application was unable to start (0xc0150002)

I followed steps carefully:

A: Setup

Create Empty Project & add in source file provided by libcurl (simple.c)

B: Link your libraries

You may try pressing F7, but it won’t work. You need to set up your
linker and what-not. On the toolbar, go to Project>Properties

Go to Configuration Properties>VC++ Directories>Include Directories
and go to <Edit> (click on the drop-down arrow to the right)

Create a new line and browse for your cURL directory. Browse for
cURL>include>curl and then click “OK”

Next, create a new line for Library Directories and navigate for
cURL>lib>Debug and then click “OK”

Lastly, under Configuration Properties>Linker>Input, edit the
Additional Dependencies and create a new line

Browse for cURL>lib>Debug>curllib.lib and paste its source link into
your Additional Dependencies dialogue box

C: Try the sample code

During run-time, however, there will be errors due to missing DLL files. 
This can be easily fixed by copying and pasting curllib.dll, libeay32.dll, openldap.dll,
and ssleay32.dll from the cURL directory and into your project folder.

So... after following the instructions i get that error. any idea? :) I have seen similar questions, but there is no clearly stated answers.

Using Dependency Walker Did the trick.

http://www.dependencywalker.com/

It helped me pinpoint the exact location of my error which was the libcurl.dll

I did a little googling and found out that...

64-bit solution

All i had to do is copy libcurl.dll into C:/Windows/SYSWOW64 Note: You have to use the libcurl.dll that you downloaded from the package you downloaded or else you will get errors as the version is different
