Plug-in failed to initialize

I've tried to download QT about 5 times now & i keep getting the message "failed to initialize. error #0" & "the plug-in failed to initialize". Plus, every time i tried to download QT I would get a box that would pop up right at the end of the download stating that I had items that were outdated & need updated. I haven't even completed the download yet & it's telling me it needs updated. I think this mystery box is the problem but i don't know how to get rid of it or even where it's comin' from.

I will try it soon and comback

Hi Everyone, im really stuck and not too good with all the tec stuff. My Acrobat 7.0 standard has been working fine for a few years and studdently over the weekend it will not open and gives me the followig error:
"there was an error while loading the plug-in "updater.api". the plug-in failed to initialize"
Does anyone know of any solutions to this problem? Could I uninstall and reiatall or is there an easier way? Apparently although I said 500USD for the product there is no support availabel on the phone unless I upgrade so Im in a bind.
All help would be greathfully accepted.

Hi Imwaves,
I repaired the adobe files through the control panel add/remove program and got it up and running but your experience explains why.
I aldo run avast free software and while I have now scanned the adobe files and there are no virsus there prob was before it was repaired...im now doing a full scan of my conputer.
However as you suggested i did check the virus chest and also found soap.api in there which had been removed on 2nd June. I think the virus tricked avast into removing the soap.api file so as to render the program useless.
At least we have gotten to the bottom of it and hopefully it may help ithers who have experience the same thing. Thanks for your help
Cheers

Acrobat plug-ins PPKLite.api, HTML2PDF.api fail to initialize & file reducing plug-in not available

Trying to figure out why in last 2 wks I've been getting error messages when I open a PDF doc with Acrobat 7.0.9 professional. Initially 2 pop-ups saying error loading plug-ins PPKLite.api and HTML2PDF.api & they "failed to initialize. I can click OK & clear those error messages & proceed with what I'm doing, so they have just been an annoyance. Today I tried to reduce the size of a file, & got an error saying some of he required plug-ins are "not available. Some functions features may be disabled" - and it didn't reduce the file size. I need to be able to reduce PDF files on a regular basis. What can I do to fix both these annoyances & my file reducing plug-in problem?

Had the same problem with Acrobat 6.0 Pro.
Start with a test, Hold down the Shift key while starting Acrobat (from the time you double-click the icon, until it is initalized and ready to go).
This starts Acrobat without ANY plug-ins.
If this works without errors, go to this link and install all the updates, starting with the lowest. Select repair, if prompted, in the event the patch is already installed, or just cancel and continue working your way from lowest to highest revision, until your version is current.

For 6.0.0 I used (in order):
Ac60PrP1.exe
Acro-Reader_6.0.2_Update.exe
Acro-Reader_6.0.3_Update.exe
Acro-Reader_6.0.4_Update.exe
Acro-Reader_6.0.5_Update.exe

Cannot upgrade adobe flash player (failed to initialize), shockwave flash does not appear as a plug in

various web sites stated that I needed to update adobe flash player. I clicked on link and followed instructions, then received the message "installation encountered errors - failed to initialize". So far, I have uninstalled previous versions of flash player and checked my plug ins. Noticed that Shockwave flash does not appear in my plug in list and adobe states that this needs to be active for their flash player.
I am on Windows XP and Firefox version 8.
Thanks.

M1212nf fails to initialize after firmware update

Hello,
I have the same problem. The printer keeps re-initializing. Please note that this only happens when we connect it to the ethernet cable. We have replaced cables, switches already, and other devices have no issues on this connection.
Any help would be appreciated

Hi Yeronimo,
Welcome to the HP Support Forums! I understand your HP Laserjet M1212nf MFP fails to initialize, this happens when you plug in the ethernet.

Failed to initialize

When I installed Mountain Lion I started getting an error message on start-up with this two-plugs icon saying "Failed to initialize". Should I be worried? How do I fix it?

When I installed Mountain Lion I started getting an error message on start-up with this two-plugs icon saying "Failed to initialize". Should I be worried? How do I fix it?

Pop-up 'Another instance is running. Configuration system failed to initialize.'

Hello - my system kept 'freezing' when a pop-up saying, ' Silverlight Plug-in has crashed' with options to repair or close. No matter what I did, t happened several times an hour, as well as the page and pointer freezing just as frequently. Often the only solution was to turn off the computer with the on/off button. Someone at work told me to delete the plug-in and I did and the problem stopped for a few days. Now, the plug-in has reappeared on the notebook, but less frequently, and the a/n pop-up comes on when I start the notebook. I suspect this action is related to what I unsuccessfully deleted. My screen and pointer are freezing less often. I appreciate opinions on how to correct this darned annoying problem.

Hi Steve,
>>Error message is "Configuration system failed to initialize". The popup window has the title "visual studio tools for office solution installer"
For this issue, I would recommend you try to uninstall/reinstall the VSTO runtime. The link below might be useful to you:
#Customization could not be loaded because the application domain could not be created.

If the method above do not work, I will recommend you install the excel add-in in the developing machine with the USB to check whether it could work correctly. If it could not install correctly, I assume that there might be something wrong when you
publish, and could you share us the steps you published? If it works correctly, I assume that it caused by the environment of another pc, it would be helpful if you could share us the screen shoot about details error message.

Configuration system failed to initialize

Getting error when I try to install an excel addin that I have published.
Error message is "Configuration system failed to initialize". The popup window has the title "visual studio tools for office solution installer"
To publish the addin I use the publish option on the build menu of VS2013.
Specify the location to publish this application: F:\publish where F: is a USB drive.
What is the default installation path on end user computers: From a CD-ROM or DVD-ROM
Then I take the USB drive to another PC, double click on setup.exe in the USB drive and get the "configuration system failed to initialize" error. I copy the entire publish directory to the C: drive of the target system and get the same error.
What am I doing wrong?
thanks,

The error "configuration system failed to initialize" occurred

Hi
When I converted and built the solution file that was developed by Visual Studio .net 2003 using Visual Studio 2005, the application program was abnormal-ended at the following step:
m_TCPChannel = New System.Runtime.Remoting.Channels.Tcp.TcpChannel(tcp_properties, Nothing, Nothing)
The error message was "configration system failed to initialize". The Exception.ToString said that the root <configuration> tag was not included in the configuration file. Therefore, I changed <configopt> tag to <configuration>
tag in the app.config file of the target project, and then executed again. Next time, the application program was abnormal-ended by the unrecognized section <xs:schema>. Therefore, I changed the app.config file to the simple one (only <configuration>
and </configuration> tags), and then executed again. The error didn't occur. I guess that it's caused by configuration settings. Please advise.

Hi,
Thank you for your post.
I am afraid that the issue is out of support range of VS General Question forum which mainly discusses the usage of Visual Studio IDE such as
WPF & SL designer, Visual Studio Guidance Automation Toolkit, Developer Documentation and Help System
and Visual Studio Editor.
Since your issue occurred on the converted project from VS .net 2003 to VS2005, and VS2005 is out of
our mainstream support , I suggest that you should consult on some development forums to check whether they will to provide some suggestions or
submit a support ticket to below site,
https://support.microsoft.com/oas/default.aspx?Gprid=1117&st=1&wfxredirect=1&sd=gn&wfxredirect=1

"Configuration system failed to initialize" when trying to connect FM12 to Sharepoint

Adding a connection to Sharepoint using the FM12 CMS Connection Manager is failing with the error "Configuration system failed to initialize". I can access all the sites and libraries in Sharepoint perfectly from IE on the same PC, but no matter what I try in the FM12 Connection Manager I get the above mentioned error. The PC (which is actually a VM) is running Windows Server 2008 R2 (x64 with heaps of RAM and HDD free) with all updates applied. FM12 is installed as part of Technical Comms Suite 5 subscription.
Does anyone have any ideas what may be causing this (or what it even means) and how I can fix it?
