Why my VLC media player is not working? When I tried to run the software, I got an error saying “the procedure entry point libvlc_set_app_id could not be located.” Please tell me how to fix it.
Looks like you have installed a new one without completely uninstalling the previous one.
Remove the application completely along with its folder and sub-contents.
Restart your system after the process.
Download the latest version and install it by following the instructions.
It will resolve this bug. Hope it will work for you.
If that’s what you are getting every time you start your VLC media player, make sure you have a supported operating system. The latest version of VLC media player supports Windows XP Service Pack 3, Windows Vista, Windows 7, Windows 8.x, and Windows 10 both 32-bit and 64-bit. Now, if you have an operating system earlier than Microsoft Windows XP, you cannot use the newer versions.
If you have like Windows Millennium or older, you need to install KernelEx first before installing any versions of VLC media player. This program adds a compatibility layer designed to allow applications that runs only on Windows 2000 and Windows XP to run on Windows 98 and Windows ME. Once you install this, your VLC media player should run perfectly again.
If you haven’t updated yet to the latest version, download the latest VLC media player.
