Same issue, I can confirm this.

Created a dummy project and Windows 8 can’t load the built-in DLL.

maintest.vmp.exe

Error at initialization of bundled DLL: dlltest.dll

OK

Same binary tested on Windows 7 and works fine.

Environment:
Windows 8 x64 Pro
UAC completely disabled (in registry)
DEP on just for Windows stuff.
No 3rd party protection softwares (AVs or FWs)
Windows Defender On/Off (doesn’t matter)

I am doing some tests with the software before making the purchase.
Any ETA on this feature fix?

Hi
I’m also observing this kind of issue (“Error at initialization of bundled DLL”)
It could be freely reproduced even using empty exe and empty dll generated by VS2010 wizard
My system is Win8 x32 Prof english
The issue reproduced only when checkbox “Load at start” is checked.

Note: win xp and win7x64 works fine on the same protected binary.

Let me know if you need the skeleton exe and dll to reproduce the issue.
Thank you
Alex.

I’ve got this problem as well.
The same protected DLL works fine on Win7, Win7-64, but fails to load on Win8.

I have already purchased VMP 2.07, can I upgrade free to 2.13 for solving this problem? If not, how much is the upgrade fee?

Thanks..
