Post From: Windows error 1114 on custom studies

After several weeks remaining on the same SC version, I really need to move to a more recent version, but still have the problem of the windows error on many custom studies.
I did a number of tests to try to isolate the problem, and here's what I've discovered:
1) The problem doesn't appear until I try to install version SC 1835 or above. Was anything introduced in v1835 that might cause this to happen?
2) I compiled a simple study from the SC library (SumAllChartsBar from studies6) on v1918. It compiled OK, but when I try to add it as a Custom Study it has the same windows 1114 error. So, it's not caused by some non-standard code in the study.
3) I compiled the same study on v1834, where I could add it successfully as a custom study. I included the study in a chartbook and saved the chartbook. I then installed v1918 and loaded the chartbook. This time it was able to open the custom study DLL within the chartbook.

Just to clarify, I'm not experiencing any problems with any other DLLs on my system, only those within SC. Not all DLLs are affected but I can see no pattern in which ones have the problem - some are older DLLs, some are very recent.
All of the above relates to 32-bit Sierra running on Windows 7.
On 64-bit SC, on the same PC, I run v1875. However, when I try to Download Current Version, it asks me to confirm that Sierra can be closed, I click Yes and nothing happens. I can see from Task Manager that no SC processes are running.

And finally, on my second PC running Windows 10, I can install the latest version (1924) and the problem doesn't appear on any custom studies, so it may be specific to Windows 7.

Thanks in advance for any advice.
