Home 2.2.0.33 wont start

Updated "Home" the other day and since then it will not run!

Everytime "Homerunner.exe" tries to load on startup i get:
"The application failed to initialize properly (0xc0000034). Click on OK to terminate the application".

Trying to run "TomTomHome.exe" also comes up with the same Windows message.

I have uninstalled and reinstalled a couple of times.

Tried installing and running old version 1.5(or something like that) and that seemed to work ok.

Anyone with any ideas?

Uninstall the TomTom Home package from the PC then download a fresh copy from Here and install that to the PC, see if this sorts out your problem - Mike

TomTom Home v2 uses a Firefox (Mozilla) style directory within "Documents & Settings/YourUsername/Application Data/TomTom...". I'm not sure of the exact name as I nuked my Home install yesterday.

Note that TomTom by default keeps backup data in there.

Try uninstalling Home, delete any residual "Program Files/TomTom" directory, move the "application data/tomtom" directory somewhere safe as a backup, then re-installing Home.
