Hi Richard,
I was unable to find ApLib.dll anywhere in the BB4W folder on my Windows7 64 bit system - which had been working fine until recently.
So I downloaded and extracted the new ApLib version as suggested, and placed a copy in C:\Program Files (x86)\BBC BASIC for Windows\LIB\ which I had to do by disabling MalWareBytes temporarily (else it got blocked each time).
When I try to run BB4W, it still complains that there is no ApLib.dll
I have re-booted the computer, but still no joy.
I am at a loss as to how to get back my full version of BB4W.
Any suggestions please?
Richard.

You put it in the wrong place - it lives one level further up in the hierarchy at C:\Program Files (x86)\BBC BASIC for Windows\ (as I stated in the initial post of this thread).

Thanks Richard. I have moved ApLib.dll, and rebooted the computer, but now the message is "The application was unable to start correctly (0xc000007b). Click OK to close the application"
Regards,
Richard.

I don't know what that means, but your best bet is to re-install BB4W from scratch, then copy the updated APLIB.DLL. That should fix it.
Edit: Further, double-check that you downloaded the latest APLIB.DLL successfully; that error can apparently be caused by a corrupted DLL. Sometimes, a download fails and the file is truncated.
Richard.
