[Resolved] Error: Can't load library: KERNEL32.dll

Hi. This error has been popping up lately for me. Just last week the game was running fine, I even recorded it but now I can't play it anymore.

So here's what happened: at first I had an issue when I tried to start the game but it didn't and a wild message would appear saying "rgss player has stopped working", but I resolved that by adding an exception to the Data Execution Prevention in the performance options of my system properties. It was all good after that. Now it's this error that appears after the title screen or, if I don't have a save file, it appears when I try to start a New Game. I tried restarting the computer, re-downloading the game, downloading the kernell32.dll from dll-files.com and then replacing it with the existing file in the System32 folder and in the SysWOW64 folder but that didn't work and when I restarted the computer, windows couldn't start up. So it had to restart from a previous restore point and hey! The game works again, for about 10 minutes...then windows update installs a few updates and the same error shows up again. I didn't know if it had anything to do with those updates, nevertheless, I tried uninstalling those updates but it didn't work. After all that, I cleaned up my disk, fixed registry, checked my disk for errors (none), scanned the whole computer for viruses with AVG Internet Security Trial Version (no threats detected). I ran out of ideas and I really don't know how can I fix this.

I'm running Windows 7 Ultimate 64-bit.

I attached my 2 save files in case it's needed.

By the way, this doesn't happen anything else. Not even Rejuvenation, which works perfectly fine.

I'm sorry for the long post but this is bothering me a lot. Especially since I started a Youtube channel recently and I was looking forward to the a Let's Play on this game someday, but I don't know how like this.

Lastly I'm sorry for misspelling something or being confusing, but English isn't my native language.

Finally I fixed it! I even formatted my computer and upgraded to Windows 10 xD
After all that needless trouble I had, it was actually simple and it's now running beautifully in my brand new Windows 10 system

Thanks anyways.
