An assertion failure on VTune Amplifier Update 4

[Worawan_D_]

Hi there, 

Please help. The VTune Amplifier XE update 4 (Windows 10 64-bit, VS2015 Enterprise) crashes when finalizing results. I have tried to uninstall and reinstall again. However, it doesn't help. The same error occurs on both VS2015 integration and the GUI. 

Here are the first part of the crash log messages.

Hello,

Please check remaining crash log text and see if there is an error:  "Key not valid for use in specified state"?

If yes - then please apply the workaround described on Microsoft site:

http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/forum/windows8_1-security/key-not-valid-for-use-in-specified-state/0ace6467-dbfb-4b96-be23-0e214b8d4014?auth=1

For "Key not valid for use in specified state" errors try moving the folder RSA from C:\Users\<User>\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Crypto\RSA to say C:\RSA (just in case there should be a need to restore it) then try installing again. This folder appears to act as a cache and should be rebuilt automatically as required.

Regards, Katya

Hi Katya,

Thanks a lot. Indeed, the log error said that  "Key not valid for use in specified state". After moving the RSA key, it works!
