From CompanionLink Support
Jump to: navigation, search

Explanation:

An MFC error means that something happened that was not anticipated by the program. This may be caused by various things, such as checking the version of CompanionLink during a sync, bugs in the software, or bugs in programs our software is trying to access.

Fix:

This error message is commonly caused by launching CompanionLink using the "CompanionLink Synchronize" shortcut instead of the "CompanionLink Setup" shortcut. If you see two CompanionLink icons on your desktop or start menu, please use "CompanionLink Setup".

Please also visit our update page and ensure you are using the latest version of the software.
