I am running BI 4 on a Windows 10 system. Windows is up to date. I install BI updates weekly if avalable and just installed latest last night. This resulted in BI unable to start with following error:

"BlueIris.exe: The program can't start because libfaad2.dll is missing from your computer. Try renstalling the program to fix this problem."

Prior to this latest update BI has been working fine. I really don't want to do a reinstall BI if can be avoided...

You dont have to reinstall. If you have a previous update file just run it an revert back.
Also, never install updates as soon as they are released. Its bad practice.

For anybody else experiencng this issue, there is a new update posted today at blueirissoftware.com/updates. This update resolves the dll issue and BI now starts correctly.
