Nmap Development: Re: Nmap 4.22SOC7 Released

I'm not seeing the issue with nmap installed in it's default location.
If I install nmap to an alternative location (with winpcap in the same
place or in it's default), I also don't see the issue.
Scan was nmap -sC <target>

Here's error 14001 from winerror.h:
//
// MessageId: ERROR_SXS_CANT_GEN_ACTCTX
//
// MessageText:
//
// This application has failed to start because the application
configuration is incorrect. Reinstalling the application may fix this
problem.
//
#define ERROR_SXS_CANT_GEN_ACTCTX 14001L

which doesn't say much to me, but there may be a clue in the Windows
Application event log.

And for a windows strace, Process Monitor may be able to shed some light:
