CoD2CompileTools.exe won't open

[Mitch]

Thank you, I downloaded this files and paste it in my bin folder

MSVCP71.DLL
msvcr71.dll

but it still doesn't work...

I am now sure that it doesn't work because I have got Windows 8.1...
Somebody know how to downgrade Windows 8.1, but without losing one file? (Windows 8.1 -> Windows 8)

Have you tried installing cod2 and mod tools normally?

You tried the Compatibility Mode already like Mitch suggested?

It has nothing to do with Windows 8.1 because I have that and my mod tools work fine. But, I am running them in compatibility mode (XP SP3) as administrator.

You don't need to install the mod tools. They do not require a registry entry.

Thank you all, who helped me.
But I gave up, I refreshed my Computer.
From Windows 8.1 to Windows 8, only the installed programs I have to install again.
That will take time, but it's better than find the reason why it don't work.

Now I have reinstalled my Computer, all files are here, but I have to install all programs again. Call of Duty 2 Compiler works, I have learned that I will never install Windows 8.1 again.
I want to get inform by a guy who will install Windows 8.2 (probably it will come soon) and say me, whether all works fine.
