Hi there. After having great times with foobar2000 in Win 7, I migrated to Win 8 and installed it with no problems. But whenever I run it, this message shows up: Failed to load DLL: foo_unpack.dll
Reason: This component is missing a required dependency, or was made for different version of foobar2000. Otherwise there are no problems in playing, converting etc. Does foobar2000 need an update or Win 8 lacks something? -------------------- "In the beginning was the Audiophile"

There was a mistake with the compiling of the component and it uses dynamic linking to C++ runtime. It will be fixed for the next version but you can make it work now by installing this.
