System error running an .exe file

    Hello

    After have completed a game demo we prepare the game pack and try to execute it on different PCs.
    On the main (Win 10) where the game where built and on a second unit (Win 10) where the graphic where made, all is ok, but on two different other machines (Sony Vaio and HP workstation notebooks with Win 10 on them) an error appear after clicking on the exe file "openal.dll not found"

    Anyone have an idea how to solve this error, please?

    Thank you in advance!

    When you export your game it should generate a bunch of files related to your game, it should also include the relevant dll files needed to run the game. Are you sure, you have included all of them in the zip/archive/installation file you have created for distribution?

    Solved!

    Norton Antivirus blocked and removed openal.dll
    Sorry for my request!
