I use XP and this problem started with v1.15.
Noxico crashes right at start.



Main message: Unable to find an entry point named 'SHGetKnownFolderPath' in DLL 'shell32.dll'.



Apparently it is a known problem.


"SHGetKnownFolderPath is only supported by vista - you cannot use it on XP, so if you plan to write application for both OSes - use SHGetFolderPath call when on XP"

I thought you might want to know about it.

There's an OR in the code that should be AND, and XP counts as an NT platform. It was probably a negative check before ("is this anything but Vista or 7?") and I forgot to invert the logic.

I don't just program Noxico...
