CTool2 Freeze Up In Windows 11

[SickAlice]

SOLVED (sort of): An issue which I ran into with Firefox on Windows is a program called ninja ripper it dumps dlls into a directory and points the program for them even after it was uninstalled. I used this program to take 3d screenshots of Character Tool 2 so I could see where weapons and such were placed for 3d modelling. Deleting said dlls named d3d9, d3d11 and ddraw from the  directory solves the problem. I still do not know what causes this to happen when updating to 11 however.

-------

Has anyone run into an issue loading Character Tool 2 on Windows 11? I just updated and so far it's the one program with an issue. Tries to load and crashes. Windows 11 compatibility diagnosis couldn't yield results

Here is a screenshot of what's happening. It is trying to load but stopping somewhere. Fine before I update from 10 to 11. I feel like some path was changed and it can't find something. This is the Steam version and I do have the original copy (EXE) and will search it for files but I'm not sure where to start looking.

So I posted this on the discord, but I have CTool 2 and run it just fine on Win 11 with no Compatibility mode on at all. The original CTool does not work, but it hasn't worked right for the last few versions of Windows.

I'm running Windows 10 with no problem with ctool from FF with no compatibility mode. I do most of my output for FF and check them in ctool to see how the rigging is.

Edited the OP and added a screenshot and more information.

Here is an old cracked version of CTool1 that runs independently (Open and search files). Tested in works on my version of Win11 which is the most updated.

Good job and good to know since I use the ripper sometimes.
