Hi a few days ago I updated my windows with the windows update thing..(the yellow little thing in my taskbar) anyways..now being a few days later..I turn on my computer and I start getting tons of error msgs..
Apparantly im missing riched20.dll and when it tried to run with riched32.dll that doesnt work either, I have absolutely no idea what to do, nothing is working right now, no msn messenger, no anything.
Help would be greatly appreciated

Hi evilcowgod!

You can download riched20.dll from HERE. It is a compressed zip file, so once you download it you will need to extract the riched20.dll to your C:\Windows\system32 directory.

Do you have your XP CD handy?

If so, place it in your CD ROM drive and follow the instructions below:

• Go to START-->RUN and type sfc /scannow (note the space between sfc and /scannow)
• Once the blue bar goes away, reboot your computer.

SFC - System File Checker, retrieves the correct version of the file from %Systemroot%\System32\Dllcache or the Windows installation source files, and then replaces the incorrect file.

Hey evilcowgod, were you the one in Live Chat earlier today?

No not me..and my probs still not solved :/

I've heard of trojans that destroy or edit the riched functions so that you can't install new software that will be able to remove them. They are used during the install process to handle the EULA agreements and to enter the key codes, so destroying their function will disable new installations.

Did you try what I suggested?

Yeah fenor I tried it..but I didnt have my cd so I just did it without..went through..and I guess nothing happened? I posted a new thread about the new prob im having..the dll one is relitively fixed now I suppose..
