the buildbot was bundling msvcr120.dll that was not the exact one that was used to build blender up until yesterday.
Could you retest today's version.

Also do you have service pack 1 installed ?

"in all earlier versions it is not important,but if we switch on this - working faster." does it not work or does it work better with that switch ??

What is toda's version?
and what is servise pack1?
in all earlier versions
working normal, but:

if we switch on compartible - working faster
if we don't switch - working too, but not so fast

i was download 0b4da96 - working with bug
i have windows 7ultimate - 64 service pack1

I would classify this as an OpenGL driver issue.
Could you maybe explain how you measure that blender is faster ?

And maybe also add the information in Russian if your Russian as I really have trouble knowing what the exact problem is.

I was open any version 2.71 and earlier, set compatible with windows7
and i was see:
click blender.exe
blender faster start(open) - it is so visibly
in work:
it is not so visibly, but faster

But main problem - in 2.71(official and not official releases) - if we don't set compatible with windows7
and click blender.exe - blender don't start.

and else:
if i download(2.71 and later) any version in arhive, open this arhive, and click blender.exe(only first time) - blender start normal, but second time, and all others, and if unpack arhive - don't start without switching on compatible with windows7

but only c5a2c08 don't open first time in arhive

Does this also happen with opening blender-app.exe?

please retest with build from the buildbot 4776d80a or newer https://builder.blender.org/download/

in 4766d80a i was open only first time after download, and second time and all others don't open without compartible with windows7, blender app exe too.

in 4766d80 we can set compartible with windows7 in blender app exe and don't set for blender exe, klick blender exe - blender open normal.

I close this as the issue is not reproducible on our systems. This seems specific to your system.
