Today I will be writing about the “The application failed to initialize properly (0xc0000006).” error. This is a common error especially in this day and age.

This error is caused because the .NET Framework isn’t on your computer (or it was uninstalled.)

The .NET Framework is a library of files designed by Microsoft to make designing applications easier for programmers. So if you get the “The application failed to initialize properly (0xc0000006).” error is was because your computer was trying to load the .NET Framework libraries for that application but it couldn’t because they don’t exist!

To fix this error you simply download the latest version of the .NET Framework.

.NET Framework Development Center
Direct Download (135MB) (From Microsoft Servers)

You will find that an increasing amount of programs are relying on this framework. So make sure you have it and make sure you have the latest version!

My name is Justin Merrill and I own a personal blog called Educated Whore. I write just about anything but mostly about my military career. I have been blogging since 2005 when I was 15 years old (now 18 ). I plan to be writer when I am older too. I also know a bit about computers but my blog doesn’t get much attention in that department so I decided to write posts on a site dedicated to computers and help with computers. I plan to write many posts. I hope you enjoy them.
