It is not clear what you mean by "it won't work correctly", then "do not work"... Nothing happens at all ? You get a wrong result ? It crashes ?

Are your running your .exe from the same directory as where it is located ?
If not, you have probably a "dispatching.exe" in the Path, that you are not aware of...
