问题:

I created an MFC app on Windows 8 using Visual Studio 2012 Update 3. It works on Windows 8, but on Windows XP, it shows me the following error:

The procedure entry point GetTickCount64 could not be located in the dynamic link library KERNEL32.dll

I searched for a solution, but it was said that Update 3 has fixed the problem with Windows XP. I downloaded and installed it, but it didn't help. However, before installing the update, I was having a worse error!

Can anyone solve this problem?

The function does not exist in XP. In the documentation for the function it says "To compile an application that uses this function, define _WIN32_WINNT as 0x0600 or later." (That means Vista and newer.) If you do that the app will not run on XP.
