You can easily open the exe they provide with 7zip and extract the DLL from there. The StartAllBack installer is also an archive. It says nothing about actually have StartAllBack installed. It says that for a certain limited subset of features, you can provide the application with a copy of the StartAllBack DLL placed in a certain location.

I don’t know where in the README it says to install StartAllBack. So we need to install startisback, together with each other?Ĭan't i just take only the dll and use only that one? Again, if one follows the instructions, nothing breaks. These 2 guys are not mandated to place stuff at the same locations as they did in the previous version, for a variety of reasons including optimization of the produced binary, so they don’t do it, hence why the new version differs completely from an internal layout perspective compared to the right version, even though few actual code changes may have happened between the 2. These DLLs are not generated manually, but by a compiler and a linker. Any other version has a completely changed internal layout and it won’t work. It is a computer program, it doesn’t have intelligence, it doesn’t know of human concepts like hope that it works or tricks like I’ll use the DLL from the latest version, it just does what it is programmed to do and nothing else: it looks for stuff in SB’s DLL at certain well defined places, and the stuff is only there on a certain version, the one I referred to. If you can’t find that and use another version thinking it will work, it won’t. Anyway, again, you like to overstate things as others around here have also done: “prevent breaking the OS” - the README clearly states what SHA-256 the DLL has to have. Ideally, all features used from SB would be ported over, but I can’t do that and all the other stuff all alone instantly, and this Github seems useful only to attract tons of questions and requests and almost no one interested to get involved. Only a small subset of features require that DLL, nothing deal breaking regarding the core functionality of the patcher, so that’s why I don’t also update for the latest release of SB as soon as it is released. I don’t have a license from StartAllBack’s developer to redistribute their files, that’s why you have to find the DLL on your own.
