RtlUnhandledExceptionFilter (again - I know...)

[Jacek Bogucki]

Hi guys (&gals)!
Since some time I have (when starting various apps) messagebox:
:
The procedure entry point RtlUnhandledExceptionFilter could not be located
in the dynamic link library ntdll.dll.

After clicking ok each app starts ok, but this is extremally annoying.
I checked the DLL itself and it is newest one - I suspect it's some others
DLL fault (possibly related to network as those apps are usually
network-related).
The system is Win2k SP4 En + alll fixes. Reinstalling service pack didn't
help. I'm going crazy. Heeelp! (I like to have my systems in perfect
condition and no - I' don't want to simply reinstall everything from
scratch)
TIA!

I've been having the same problem for months, and have been tearing my hair out trying to find a soluction (nothing on microsoft.com has been anything resembling helpful). Anyway, I found this on community.borland.com, tried it, and it works

Problem

When starting Delphi you receive this error: The procedure entry point RtlUnhandledExceptionFilter could not be located in the dynamic link library ntdll.dl

Answer

Search for UXTHEME.dll and rename it to UXTHEME.old


I'm not running Delphi, but it fixed the problem. Hope it helps you out too.
