  • It's possible the MobileAsset window may never appear when launched. If so, you do not see mobileasset.exe running in Task Manager, and the MobileAsset.log file contains errors:
    2015-12-04 10:53:16.453          1 FATAL       | Unable to load DLL 'WaspAct.dll': The specified module could not be found. (Exception from HRESULT: 0x8007007E)

    64-bit Windows: C:\Windows\SysWOW64\msvcr110.dll
    32-bit Windows: C:\Windows\System32\msvcr110.dll

    or

More Information

  • The initial installation of .NET v3.5.1 on Windows XP installs the file in question. On any version of Windows, if the file is moved or deleted, subsequent uninstall & reinstall of this feature does not restore the file.
    Windows Vista, 7, 8, 10: Enabled via Programs and Features, Turn Windows features on or off.
