Hello all, new on the forum and had a question about my Electrum wallet. First off, I'm not even sure that I've set up my wallet correctly.

Everytime I open Electrum, I'm getting a Microsoft Visual C++ Runtime error? It says "An application has made an attempt to load the c runtime library incorrectly. Please contact the application's support team for more information." Does anybody know why it's giving me this error?

The application opens and I do see a wallet address under receiving tab. I also see a bunch of addresses under the address tab and receiving tab. Is that normal? I'm running a Windows 8 64-bit machine.

Thank you in advance.

Ok thank you, it doesn't really bother me as long as everything works. Everything seems to work fine anyways. I have a bunch of addresses under the receiving tab though, is that how it's suppose to be? Also, I added a password for my wallet but it doesn't ask me for one when I open the program.

The receive tab displays the oldest unused address, but if you need to give out a bunch of addresses at the same time, you should give out different ones. In that case, you can choose from the 20 addresses displayed on the addresses tab (IOW yes it's normal). As you use addresses, they will be moved to a subsection of the addresses tab labeled "used" and new ones will be generated to replace those that have been used once.

For your password question (and several other FAQs), see here: https://electrum.orain.org/wiki/Frequently_Asked_Questions#Why_can_I_open_the_wallet_without_entering_my_password.3F

Did you download the Windows installer or the Standalone Executable?

I haven't seen this issue though Win7.  I am using the Executable FWIW...

I believe this is a known issue with the standalone executable on some individuals' Windows PCs. It's only a cosmetic problem -- Electrum should otherwise work fine. If it bothers you, you can AFAIK use the Windows installer to install it locally, and this issue should go away.

Everything else you described sounds normal to me.
