Dear Codejock-Team,

during our migration from Visual Studio 2010 to Visual Studio 2017 we encountered the following error: Every time when we started a thread the whole skin of our application got broken.

After some research we found out that you are hooking the Method "CreateThread" from the following Windows DLLs (in your Class CXTPSkinManagerApiHook):

API-MS-WIN-CORE-PROCESSTHREADS-L1-1-1.DLL

API-MS-WIN-CORE-PROCESSTHREADS-L1-1-2.DLL

But the following DLL ist missing here (Last number is Zero):

API-MS-WIN-CORE-PROCESSTHREADS-L1-1-0.DLL

Code from the current Version 19.1.0 (XTPSkinManagerApiHook.cpp Line 1058):

    XTPSFHOOKINFOEX("API-MS-WIN-CORE-PROCESSTHREADS-L1-1-1.DLL", CreateThread,
                    API_MS_WIN_CORE_PROCESSTHREADS_L1_1_1, 0, &CXTPSystemVersion::IsWin8OrGreater),
    XTPSFHOOKINFOEX("API-MS-WIN-CORE-PROCESSTHREADS-L1-1-2.DLL", CreateThread,
                    API_MS_WIN_CORE_PROCESSTHREADS_L1_1_2, 0, &CXTPSystemVersion::IsWin81OrGreater),

Looking at the other hooks we decided to add the following Hook:

    XTPSFHOOKINFOEX("API-MS-WIN-CORE-PROCESSTHREADS-L1-1-0.DLL", CreateThread,
                    API_MS_WIN_CORE_PROCESSTHREADS_L1_1_0, 0, &CXTPSystemVersion::IsWin7OrGreater),

We are using this since Mid 2019 with Codejock 18.6.0 and Visual Studio 2017 (v 15.9.14) and currently with Codejock 19.1.0 and Visual Studio 2019 (v 16.5.1).

Can you verify this fix and apply it with the next Codejock Release?

Yours Sincerely
Markus

Hi Markus

Did you get resolution for this problem. We are having a similar issue?
