Questions to ask before Submission Are you using the latest version of apktool? Yes. Have you tried apktool d, apktool b without changing anything? Yes. If you are trying to install a modified apk, did you resign it? This is my own apk, not modified.

I have also seen a few reports of this since updating to 2.4.0.

There seems to be an issue with the 32-bit Windows aapt binary failing to load dependencies. -1073741515 is actually the HRESULT 0xC0000135‬ STATUS_DLL_NOT_FOUND. This can impact both 32 and 64 bit Windows as it appears that apktool is using the jvm bitness rather than the actual host OS bitness to determine which aapt version to use.

After running procmon, it appears that the missing assembly is libwinpthread-1.dll

I have only Java for 64 bit systems installed, get the same error though. Any help?
