Hello, I'll explain things quickly.
I made a program for my internship. The program is supposed to count up until it hits a certain date and time, when it does, it should open a url in the user's default browser that leads them to a Twitch stream.
The code itself works and I've tested it in it's standalone application and in the LiveCode engine itself. Both work fine.
However, whenever I move the standalone application OUT of the windows folder, and try to run the program, it tells me this:
Here is a download to my stack :

Please help me out. The people I'm distributing the application to won't like that they have to leave the application inside the windows folder. Thanks.

Re: Failed To Load External Error
When you move the application, you will also need to move the externals folder which is created alongside the standalone .exe file. One recent version of LC has a bug which requires a phantom external dB driver DLL, even when no databases are used. Otherwise it may be that your standalone does require an external.
By default the externals folder should be alongside the standalone.

My laptop does have LiveCode 7.0.5 and I could just compile it on there. I think that would fix the bug. Alright I'll do that. Thank you =)
