I was just playing around with an open-source process hollowing source code and ran into a problem.
The RunPE works just fine for a test "Hello World" app. But if I try to inject a bigger app that uses user32.dll and kernel32.dll, the injected program crashes with exception code 0xC0000142.

If my understanding is correct that is because user32.dll or/and kernel32.dll don't get loaded correctly.
Im currently trying to figure this out. If anyone has a nudge for me on how to ensure the dll's get loaded I would be very grateful :)

I'm currently learning C++ for university (Computer Science/Security) and don't want to just copy pastee, im trying to really understand it.

Here is the code:

Thanks in advance!

EDIT:

Code of the file im trying to inject:

Code

#include "Windows.h"

int main()
{
    HINSTANCE hDLL = LoadLibraryA("User32.dll");
    vMessageBoxA MsgBox = (vMessageBoxA)GetProcAddress(hDLL, "MessageBoxA");
    MsgBox(0, (LPCTSTR)"Hello World!", (LPCTSTR)"Hello World! Dynamiically loadded!!", 0);
    FreeLibrary(hDLL);
    return 0;
}

Nevermind I fixed it.
For people wondering in the future:
You obviously cant inject console apps into gui apps (and vice versa) with this method :)
