I have been using Inkscape on my PC for a while and it has always run fine, but suddenly it won't start. Now, when I try to run Inkscape, I get the following error message:
The application was unable to start correctly (0xc0000005). Click OK to close the application.
I tried uninstalling and re-installing it and still get the same message. What else can I try?
I'm using Windows 7.

Seems to be a long-running problem, there's an open bug report on Launchpad dating back to 2009. Some of the comments there report that restarting the computer solved the problem, other say it only happened when Firefox was also opened.

@Michael: AFAIK Inkscape is a native Win32 program that doesn't use .Net at all. – Robert – 2012-06-08T10:15:00.110
@Robert: somehow, I thougt of paint .NET, nvm, I am confused :D – Michael K – 2012-06-08T10:27:44.483
@Kirstin you might consider posting an answer to your own question. – Ben West – 2012-10-18T02:49:32.677
