Vtune 2025.1 cannot start executable

[SNena1]

Hello,

Vtune 2025.1.3 fails to launch an executable, showing message box with 0xc0000142 error .

I can launch executable from command line no problem. Please help. This started happening after upgrading from 2025.0 to latest version of oneapi base toolkit .

Thanks.

Sergey.

Windows or Linux?

Could you provide more information when the error happened?

Windows.

Error 0xc0000142 means " {DLL Initialization Failed} Initialization of the dynamic link library %hs failed. The process is terminating abnormally."  It looks like VTune messes up one of the dependency dlls which fails to load when I launch profiling.

I narrowed down the problem to the use of mi-malloc allocator. Updating to latest version of mimalloc fixes the issue.
