ERROR_SXS_SETTING_NOT_REGISTERED
ERROR_SXS_SETTING_NOT_REGISTERED — The requested activation-context setting is not registered.
A caller requested a Side-by-Side setting that is absent from the current activation context. The application may be running with the wrong manifest, or the setting was never declared for this version of the assembly.
For developers, confirm the activation context and the setting namespace before treating this as an installation problem.
What to check
- Verify the manifest and activation context that are active when the setting is queried.
- Confirm that the required setting was introduced by the expected application or assembly version.
- Update application code to handle a missing optional setting without assuming it is always available.
