Audacity Conflicts with Windows component. (Event Viewer)

Hello.
I have a problem with Audacity 2.1.3.
When I look for event viewer of Windows 10 64 bit, I saw SidebySide error.

Here is the general info (Turkish):

“C:\Program Files (x86)\Audacity\audacity.exe” için etkinleştirme içeriği oluşturulamadı. “” adlı bildirim veya ilke dosyasında . satırda hata var. Uygulama için gereken bir bileşen sürümü halen etkin olan bir başka bileşen sürümüyle çakışıyor. Çakışan bileşenler: Bileşen 1: C:\WINDOWS\WinSxS\manifests\amd64_microsoft.windows.common-controls_6595b64144ccf1df_6.0.14393.953_none_42151e83c686086b.manifest. Bileşen 2: C:\WINDOWS\WinSxS\manifests\x86_microsoft.windows.common-controls_6595b64144ccf1df_6.0.14393.953_none_89c2555adb023171.manifest.

As you can see, audacity.exe conflicts with 2 components. (Bileşen means component in Turkish.)

My new rig crashes sometimes. Maybe this cause the problem. Because it says audacity.exe conflicts with AMD64 etc. etc.
(Running with AMD RYZEN CPU)

What can i do for this problem? Thanks.

You can view more details about the side by side error (SxS) here: https://forum.audacityteam.org/t/win7-x64-audacity-2-1-3-side-by-side-conflict-errors/45230/1 There is nothing you can do unless you wish to recompile Audacity or go back to Audacity 2.1.2.

However the computer crashing is almost certainly nothing to do with Audacity or the SxS issue, because Audacity does not have sufficient permissions to crash the computer. Computer crashes are almost always driver issues. WhoCrashed can be helpful in identifying the cause of the crash. Please see http://manual.audacityteam.org/man/faq_errors.html#reboot.

Alright. I will remove 2.1.3 and install 2.1.2 for quick solution.
Thank you.

2.1.2 won’t stop the computer crashing. That is almost certainly a separate problem which you can explore by looking at the dump in WhoCrashed.
