After downloading the new version 11.0 of LRC, it will not start. I get an error message: The procedure entry point SetThreadDescription point could not be located in the dynamic link library ......... Headlights.dll.

Have googled for solution and have unistalled, restarted and installed again - no luck!

Please help.

Hi,

We are 1 update later and still I can not use the new LRC. Will not download because of the headlights.dll error.

Is there someone with a solution please?

Still no joy! Lightroom issued an update version 11.0.1 (all bugs fixed!??), but still the same "headlights.dll" problem.

Had to revert to version 10.4 to work.

Same problem here also. I was able to update LR to v.11 with no problems on my home computer, but could not do it on my work computer, which are both Windows 10. It downloads fine but gives me the "...Headlights..." error when trying to start LR.

Bonjour,

 

Suite à un changement de PC j'ai installé lightroom sur ce dernier, l'installation se fait sans problème mais à l'ouverture de l'application, j'ai un message point d'entrée introuvable, voir copie d'écran. 

Quelle est la solution ?

 

Merci de votre aide.

Same problem, Windows 10 ltsb 1607. Adobe Cleaner Tool did not help.

Had to roll back to LrC 10.4.
