He knew better. CPY had been quiet for a long time, and the game used Denuvo protection that usually took months, not days, to bypass. But the "Free Download" button was bright, green, and pulsing. It was an invitation to a shortcut he couldn't afford to take, yet couldn't afford to miss. His bank account was empty, and his wrestling-obsessed younger brother’s birthday was tomorrow. He clicked.
Leo’s stomach dropped. He tried to open his browser to find a fix, but the browser was gone. He tried to restart, but the computer wouldn't boot. All that remained was the realization that the "updated crack" wasn't a game at all. It was a lock, and he had just handed over the keys to his digital life.

The next morning, his brother asked if he could play the new wrestling game. Leo looked at the dead, black monitor and realized that in trying to cheat the system, he had only cheated himself. He knew better
Then, the screen flickered. A command prompt window opened and closed so fast it was a ghost. Suddenly, his desktop icons began to vanish one by one, replaced by blank white rectangles. A high-pitched whine started coming from his hard drive, a mechanical scream of a needle scraping glass. It was an invitation to a shortcut he
The problem is with the "dependency". The only dependency is the Visual C++ Redistributable for Visual Studio 2012. The Chilkat .NET assembly is a mixed-mode assembly, where the inner core is written in C++ and compiles to native code. There is a dependency on the VC++ runtime libs. Given that Visual Studio 2012 is new, it won't be already on most computers. Therefore, it needs to be installed. It can be downloaded from Microsoft here:
Visual C++ Redistributable for Visual Studio 2012
If using a .msi install for your app, it should also be possible to include the redist as a merge-module, so that it's automatically installed w/ your app if needed.
Note: Each version of Visual Studio corresponded to a new .NET Framework release:
VS2002 - .NET 1.0 2003 - .NET 1.1 2005 - .NET 2.0 2008 - .NET 3.5 2010 - .NET 4.0 2012 - .NET 4.5The ChilkatDotNet45.dll is for the .NET 4.5 Framework, and therefore needs the VC++ 2012 runtime to be present on the computer.
Likewise, the ChilkatDotNet4.dll is for the 4.0 Framework and needs the VC++ 2010 runtime.
The ChilkatDotNet2.dll is for the 2.0/3.5 Frameworks and requires the VC++ 2005 runtime. (It is unlikely you'll find a computer that doesn't already have the VC++ 2005 runtime already installed.)
