Linker Tools Error LNK1123

failure during conversion to COFF: file invalid or corrupt

The object or resource could not be converted to COFF.

This tool requires the format of all input files to be COFF. If an input file is not COFF, the tool runs a conversion tool, either CVTOMF (to convert 32-bit OMF objects) or CVTRES (to convert resource files).

One of the following may be a cause:

• The file is corrupt.
  
  
• The file is not a valid file type. An example of an invalid type is a 16-bit OMF object.

This error is preceded by errors or warnings from the conversion tool.
