Hello Support ,
Could you please help with the issues below ?
We have large number of the computers which have been affected by SideBySide event id 80 (Application log) while trying to load Adobe Dreamweaver CC.
SideBySide event id 80
Activation context generation failed for "C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Adobe Dreamweaver CC\Dreamweaver.exe".Error in manifest or policy file "" on line .

SideBySide Errors w R&R 4.30

I just removed XP and installed W7 Pro 32-bit on a T61. I installed numerous of the Lenovo applications, including Power Manager, Access Connections 6.01, System Update and R&R 4.30.0027. I noticed many SideBySide Event ID 33 Errors. The machine has Microsoft Visual C++ 2008 Redistributable x86 9.0.30729.17 and x86 9.0.30729.6161, the former from the original installation and the latter a Microsoft update.  I determined that R&R was causing the SideBySide Errors. Apparently, the scheduler_proxy.exe process was looking for versoin 8.0.50727.762 and couldn't find it. Other processes were looking for version 8.0.50608.0 and couldn't find it. I uninstalled R&R and the SideBySide Errors are gone. Incidentally, during the install I was informated that scheduler_proxy.exe couldn't be automatically stopped by the uninstaller and needed to be. I stopped the process manually using Task Manager and the uninstallation completed. It appears that System Update also uses the scheduler_proxy.exe process so I had a number of problems after rebooting, although System Update seemed to run normally. I then uninstalled System Update, during which I was informed that not all files would be deleted for one reason or another. After another reboot, there were a number of Errors related to scheduler_proxy.exe in Event Viewer. I then re-installed System Update, which again seemed to run normally. Now no SideBySide errors, but also no R&R 4.30.
My question is, does R&R 4.30.0027 require instances of Visual C++ other than the two already on the machine?
For what it's worth, I lalso couldn't install the scan/copy/fax/print suite of programs for an HP Officejet and got error messages that included "file could not be found" and that a Runtime error had occurred. I suspect I have some kind of Visuall C++ issue and would appreciate any help / guidance / sympathy that can be provided.

Solved!

(1) Do you have windows 7 SP 1 installed?   The resolves some side by side issues.
(2) the scheduler_proxy.exe process was looking for versoin 8.0.50727.762
This is correct. This module is a RNR module, NOT system update module. A hex dump of this module shows a dependency.

You chased your tail:
(1) should have left RNR installed

(3) did not have Visual C++ 2005 installed.
You shined:
(1) posted excellent documentation

(3) When you install visual C++ 2005, control panel. program and features wiil not show the exact release version number neededed by RNR. humm. security whole. Thus think 4/2010 release of visual 2005 C++ is really updated version 8.

Adobe Air causing error in event log

I installed Windows 7 64-bit on a system recently. This morning I installed PS CS4, including Adobe Air.
I've now gotten 5 of these errors recorded in the event log.
Source: SideBySide
Event ID: 63
Level: Error
Activation context generation failed for "x:\adobe cs4\payloads\adobeamp-mul\adobe air\Versions\1.0\Adobe AIR.dll".Error in manifest or policy file "x:\adobe cs4\payloads\adobeamp-mul\adobe air\Versions\1.0\Adobe AIR.dll" on line 3. The value "MAJOR_VERSION.MINOR_VERSION.BUILD_NUMBER_MAJOR.BUILD_NUMBER_MINOR" of attribute "version" in element "assemblyIdentity" is invalid.
How do I get rid of this?

I have had the same issue since I bought PS-CS4 and Lightroom2.0 back in OCTOBER/NOVEMBER 2009.
Directly from Windows Event Log:
EventID 63: Activation context generation failed for "C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Adobe AIR\Versions\1.0\Adobe AIR.dll".Error in manifest or policy file "C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Adobe AIR\Versions\1.0\Adobe AIR.dll" on line 3. The value "MAJOR_VERSION.MINOR_VERSION.BUILD_NUMBER_MAJOR.BUILD_NUMBER_MINOR" of attribute "version" in element "assemblyIdentity" is invalid.
OS: Windows 7 64-bit
Considering this ERROR is CONSTANTLY being JACKED into the Event Log, I had hoped that others would be asking Adobe for a solution. I guess there are just two of us experiencing this problem - I seriously DOUBT that.
Having DEVELOPMENT experience in several programming languages, it appears there is a SIMPLE error in the DLL file. PLEASE FIX THIS ASAP!
As much as we have to pay for this software, I would expect not to have these kind of issues. Adobe PLEASE RESPOND!!!

In Event Viewer appears such message (maybe this message can help to resolve this problem):

Good day David
As Shanky mentioned we need more information before we can recommend anything.
right now we can not recommend anything! but only point some general information. we only know that there are logs about an error but we have no information of the source for this error. (1) Can you monitor what are you trying to do when you
get this error? (2) what version and edition are you using?
Basically as much as I can see, this file CopyDatabaseWizard.exe, is used in several actions like: in upgrade installation, using the Copy Database wizard, etc. This is not a new file for SQL 2014, but there were issues with it in the CTP version
as you can see here.
You can find the file in this locations for example depending on your Server version:
C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft SQL Server\120\Tools\Binn\ManagementStudio
C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft SQL Server\100\Tools\Binn\VSShell\Common7\IDE
Several sites reports this file as Trojan horse virus. I have no knowledge regarding this! but as we have no information on the source of your log error, you should checks this as well.
check if this links help you:

ITunes 7.5 Installation error for Windows

Hi everybody.
I have a fresh system (Windows XP Home Edition) on my Laptop (Acer) from brand CD Images (Acer). The only thing I've done - it's put the SP2 on it. That's all. I've downloaded latest version of ITunes 7.5 - iTunes75Setup.exe file from apple site and when I double click on it - "This application has failed to start because the application configuration is incorrect. Reinstalling the application may fix the problem" message apear. And the event viewer has 2 error messages -
Source - SideBySide,
Event ID - 58,
Syntax error in manifest or policy file "D:\Download\iTunes75Setup.exe" on line 0.
And the second is:
Source - SideBySide
Event ID - 59
Generate Activation Context failed for D:\Download\iTunes75Setup.exe. Reference error message: The operation completed successfully.
Can anyone assist me?
Thank you

Very strange. Googling indicates that that message is usually associated with small programs created using Visual Studio ... and it's the first time I've seen it on an iTunes install (that I can recall). Why an iTunes install should be throwing it is rather mysterious.
Folllowing up on the other cases of this in other contexts (warning: this is experimental advice ...), some joy has been had by downloading the folloiwing item from Microsoft:
Microsoft Visual C++ 2005 Redistributable Package (x86)
If you decide to go that route, do you get any joy with an iTunes install afterwards?

the SideBySides appear to be being produced by your Apple Software Update for Windows when it runs a scheduled check.
there's a new update for ASU available (version 1.0.2.2). go "Start > all programs > Apple Software Update > Apple Software Update", and try installing the version of ASU that comes up.
do you get the SideBySide events again at your next scheduled check for updates with ASU 1.0.2.2 in place?

Acrobat DC Pro Compare 2 Versions Gives Distorted Results

When attempting to compare 2 pdf versions in Acrobat DC Pro, the highlighted results become distorted. Can only view the compare results by hovering over each word or zooming in enough to see the highlighted word. Is this a known issue in DC? We did not have any issue's until we upgraded to DC, XI worked fine.
Here's an example:
We receive the following Error in Event Viewer
Source: SideBySide
Event ID: 80
Activation context generation failed for "C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Acrobat 2015\Acrobat\Acrobat.exe".Error in manifest or policy file "" on line .

Thanks for reporting this issue.
Regrettably, I have not been able to reproduce this problem on my MacOS 10.9.5 with any of my sample PDF files.
Some additional questions:
(1) Does this happen with any and all PDF files you attempt to apply this Preflight profile to?
(2) Are you simply checking or fixing using the profile?
(3) Does Acrobat crash when using other, similar profiles? If so, which do crash and which don't?
(4) Are you using the English version of Acrobat or some other language version?
(5) Do you have any plug-ins installed?
Let me know the answers to these questions and we will try to proceed from there.

Adobe Acrobat DC hangs shortly after start

Hi,
After starting Adobe Acrobat DC in Windows 8.1 Enterprise 64Bit, after 1 or 2 seconds, the application does not respond anymore. I can only terminate the application. Anyone else experiencing this behaviour?
Thanks.
With regards,
Reza Stephan Amiri

Something very interesting happened in my case:
As sukridt15 had mentioned, I ran the Repair option. It didn't really have any impact. I had exactly the same behaviour as JoninJacksonville, only perhaps the hang duration was not as long anymore.
At some other time I started Photoshop CC 2014. At the beginning it was also not very responsive, (before upgrading to Adobe Acrobat DC I never had any problems with Photoshop), choosing any option took several seconds. I then tried to print a picture, as mentioned it also took several seconds to load the dialog box for printing but once it was there, I was able to print without any issues and Photoshop started to become responsive in a normal manner again. Interestingly enough from that time I also didn't have any problems with Adobe Acrobat DC. I can't tell you how this is related but that's how the problem was resolved.
I also get the following error in the event log:
Source: SideBySide
Event ID: 78
Description:
Activation context generation failed for "C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Acrobat DC\Acrobat\Acrobat.exe".Error in manifest or policy file "" on line .

Component 2: C:\windows\WinSxS\manifests\x86_microsoft.windows.common-controls_6595b64144ccf1df_6.0.96 00.17415_none_a9ed7f470139b3c1.manifest
I'm not sure whether the unresponsiveness has something to do with this but I'm sure that this error in the event log should not necessarily be there.
Again, I'm using Core i7, 64Bit, 32GB RAM, Windows 8.1 Enterprise Version.
BTW, when I installed Adobe Acrobat DC on a Surface Pro 3 which has Windows 8.1 Professional installed, there weren't any problems. I haven't checked the event log to see whether the error is there as well.

Adobe Indesign Server 4 Failed to start

Any help is much appreciated!!!!

I don't have a server at hand right now ( that machine is busy with an OSX install, on a different partition ) but you could start by looking for any Adobe document that even mentions VC++ 2008.
In other words, at least for the desktop version of CS4 the oficial compiler is the VC 2005 SP1 .
Express should be no problem, I use it myself: "VS80sp1-KB926748-X86-INTL.exe"
You'll also need the matching Windows SDK. Watch out for something labeled "5.2.3790.2075.51.PlatformSDK_Svr2003R2_rtm.dmg"

Afterthought: funny that this thread always pops up when my experimental machine is busy ;-)

"Exception has been thrown by the target on an invocation" during installation of SQL 2014 CTP2

Hi.
I have this error during installation SqlEngineConfigAction_install_confignonrc_Cpu64 (component of SQL 2014 CTP2) on virtual machine (Windows Server 2012 Standart). Logs in Event Viewer are clean. And I have no idea, what can I do with such problem.
Maybe, you know and can help me?
Later in Event Viewer appears such message (maybe this message can help to resolve this problem):

Hi Max_Mikulik,
According to your error message, we need to verify if the Antivirus software or other application hinder installing SQL Server 2014
SQL Server 2014 CTP 2. When you install SQL Server 2014 CTP2, there are some notes.
1. You must install .NET Framework 4.0 as well as PowerShell 2.0 .
2. Copy Database Wizard has Limitations. I recommend you take a backup of the database in the instance of SQL Server running on a previous version and restore the database to SQL Server 2014 CTP 2. We can install SQL Server 2014 CTP 2 without
choosing the component about Copy Database Wizard.
For more information about SQL Server 2014 community technology preview 2 ( CTP 2) release notes, you can review the following article.

I know others have had same/similar experiences with somewhat earlier versions of Acrobat Pro, for example:
http://forums.adobe.com/message/5164184#5164184
I've reinstalled Acrobat Pro, and also did a Repair Installation from the Help menu, but nothing seems to fix it.
I also have Adobe CS5 installed (not all components). All software is fully updated -- both Adobe products and Windows 7.
I occasionally use the form functions of Acrobat Pro and would like to be able to edit forms... so I much rather not disable the entire function.
Any suggestions on how to fix it would be greatly appreciated.
Many thanks,
JF

This has bothered me for a while, never was able to find a solution, so today it began to bother me and I thought I would bump up this thread.
Is there a solution? Or has Adobe decided not to address it for their customers that get the error? For me, my event log shows this error at least once for every day.

I've done an uninstall/reinstall. Still receiving the following error in the Event Viewer. I do not have Admin Privileges as our IT department doesn't allow users to have them. I get them to Run as Different User to install. Hope this helps.
Initial install was from the CC Manager and I allowed it to uninstall the prior Acrobat version before installing DC.

Let me know if there are additional steps to take to correct.
PS if someone knows a way to run Creative Cloud without Admin Privileges or setup permissions on specific directories on a system to allow CC to work without IT I would greatly appreciate it.

Add me to the list - As soon as I installed Acrobat DC Standard, I started getting these same Event 80 side-by-side errors as reported above.
The installer un-installed Acrobat 10 and then installed DC
During a chat with Tech Support, he had me download the acrobat cleaner, un-install, the re-install DC - nothing changed.
I have been using Acrobat for more than 15 yr - never had acrobat generate these side-by-side errors before.
I suspect that there are a lot more people having the same problem, but unless they check their event viewer on a regular basis, they may not know these errors are being generated.
I noticed that when the computer is first booted, there are one or more instances of this error...then when acrobat is launched, there are several more instances. Every time acrobat is launched more errors are generated.
Support tech was supposed to send me an email with any findings.. now Adobe sent me an email notice letting me know that my incident number would be closed unless I continued to provide updates to the problem to keep it open... This is just reversed to what it should be - STILL WAITING FOR ADOBE RESPONSE!!

Install Microsoft Visual C++ 2008 Runtime by visiting http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=29
Restart your system
Launch Dreamweaver CC
Workaround 2:
Open "Windows Explorer" and go to "<Installation drive>:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Adobe Dreamweaver CC"
Make a backup of "Dreamweaver.exe"
Download and install "Resource Tuner" from this link: http://www.restuner.com/download.htm
Launch "Resource Tuner"
Go to menu "File -> Open File..."
Browse to "<Installation drive>:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Adobe Dreamweaver CC" and select "Dreamweaver.exe"
Click "Open"
On the left-hand-side, expand "Manifest"
Select the file displayed under "Manifest"
Click the "Resource Editor" button
Locate the following section (please note that the value for "publicKeyToken" may vary) <dependency><dependentAssembly><assemblyIdentity type="win32" name="Microsoft.Windows.Common-Controls" version="6.0.0.0" processorArchitecture="*" publicKeyToken="6595b64144ccf1df" language="*"></assemblyIdentity></dependentAssembly></dependency>
Select and delete the entire section as in previous step
Click OK
Click Yes (for the confirmation dialog)
Go to menu "File -> Save File As..."
Keep the name as "Dreamweaver.exe" and click "Save"
Click Yes (for the confirmation dialog)
Close "Resource Tuner"
Launch Dreamweaver CC
Please let us know if this workaround works for you.
Thanks for your patience.
Thanks,

Creative Cloud app: SideBySide EventID 80 error in Windows 7

Since updating to the latest version of the CC Desktop app last week I've noticed in Event Viewer that I'm consistently getting an error each time I use my PC (running Win7 x64). I've never seen this error before and wondered if other Windows users have encountered it (known issue?) and how to go about resolving it. Here's the error log summary:
Activation context generation failed for "c:\program files (x86)\Adobe\adobe creative cloud\Utils\Creative Cloud Uninstaller.exe".Error in manifest or policy file "" on line . A component version required by the application conflicts with another component version already active. Conflicting components are:. Component 1: C:\Windows\WinSxS\manifests\x86_microsoft.windows.common-controls_6595b64144ccf1df_6.0.76 01.17514_none_41e6975e2bd6f2b2.manifest. Component 2: C:\Windows\WinSxS\manifests\amd64_microsoft.windows.common-controls_6595b64144ccf1df_6.0. 7601.17514_none_fa396087175ac9ac.manifest.
It appears that when the CC update ran, it installed (reinstalled?) Microsoft Visual C++ 2010 x86 Redistributable - 10.0.40219 and I believe that this has possibly caused the glitch, but I'm not certain. As you can see from the above log, this has something to do with the CC uninstaller: odd, as I'm obviously not trying to uninstall it each time I boot up the PC.
Does anyone have any advice? Fortunately, this doesn't appear to be causing any problems in launching my applications, and I can open up CC desktop without any issues. I wouldn't even know about this if I didn't keep an eye on Event Viewer.

Yes, there's no doubt that this error is being caused by the CC app, and like you, it happened after I last updated the app.
I've tried a number of things to resolve this, including re-installing Microsoft Visual C++ 2010 x86 Redistributable, removing and re-installing the CC app, etc., but I continue to get this error message being logged by Windows more or less daily.
I decided not to go to the lengths of the solution proposed by Vienna_Sydney because, whilst annoying, the error isn't causing any noticeable problems on my system (some folks who've had SideBySide errors related to other applications (notably Acrobat) have had system crashes so I count myself lucky), but I'm still concerned that I'm getting this error being logged on my otherwise perfectly functioning and well maintained PC, all thanks to an Adobe install. I'd like to think Adobe are on the case, but the CC app seems to be consistently buggy and I'm not holding my breath...
