Symptoms

Assume that you develop a Visual C++ Microsoft Foundation Class (MFC) application by using Microsoft Visual Studio 2010. The application implicitly or explicitly loads additional DLLs during the CRT_INIT phase of MFC DLL initialization. You try to run the application in Windows 8. In this situation, the module state becomes corrupted. Additionally, the application may crash, and you receive an access violation exception.
