Vlc.exe – Entry Point Not Found

The procedure entry point_vlc_thread_ready could not be located in the dynamic link library libvlccore.dl

I keep on trying to run VLC player but same error was displayed, I even restarted my computer and run VLC player again, same error was displayed, I remove and re install VLC player, same error was displayed, on my last idea in solving my problem, I scan my computer for some virus, but no virus was found, I don't have an idea now in solving this issue, please help me fix my problem, many thanks in advance.

Dear Dinacallway

  • First complete uninstall your VLC player and remove VLC Player folder located in Program Files folder. After this, restart your computer.
  • Then download a latest version of VLC player from internet and install it. It will work fine without getting this error “Vlc.exe – Entry Point Not Found. The procedure entry point_vlc_thread_ready could not be located in the dynamic link library libvlccore.dll”.
  • This error shows when you not uninstall complete VLC player from your system before installing the new one.

Hope it will work.

Hi,

In your question, you haven't mentioned the version of the VLC player that you are using.

Things you can do to fix this problem are:

  1. Check if you have completely installed your VLC player. If not, then re-install it.
  2. If installation is complete and the error still occurs, then check your system registry. It might be that your registry is damaged. Try to clean your registry. You can use some registry cleaner softwares you can download (google it).
  3. Try to install VLC Media Player 0.9.3/0.9.4.
