Our plugins also crashed while loading on XP. I don’t have a XP machine to test, but following maybe works. I will add this option to our plugins and see what happens:
-
Link the CRT statically - in Config Properties / C/C++ / Code Generation / Runtime Library select the non-DLL multi-threaded option, for example /MT in the release build.
-
Add /Zc:threadSafeInit- (n.b. the trailing - is part of the switch) to the compiler options under Config Properties / C/C++ / Command Line / Additional Options.
