I am constantly getting errors for these two things. I've been doing some reading about it but haven't found a solution. I already tried the regedit, the value is correct. so I don't know what to do next.

Have you tried scanning for viruses and spyware? Another thing to try is to see if the syetm files are good. At the commend prompt, type sfc /scannow

I probably should run another scan. And I have no idea where to type to fiind out if the files are even good.

What should I scan with and will it tell me if there is a virus on here? My mom has Norton's. Ran the scans and it's not finding anything.

Sorry about being vague.........

-Click on Start (on your task bar)
-Then click on Run
-In the dialog box type CMD
This will open a window with a prompt----
-At the prompt type sfc /scannow
-and hit enter

Tried the scan thing and it says I must be an administrator running a console session ??

And I think there is a norton's antivirus. I'll have to double check that.

she has norton's 360. and i ran a scan and live update already

Did it say it found corrupt files and succesfully repaired them?

no, it said it couldn't repair them.

Doing a little reading and I found that windows installer writes the log or something?

THAT is what I'm having problems with as well.

okay, but what file am i looking for?? I don't know what to enter in the blue box that opened. I still don't get the log from the scan. so i don't know what files are still messed up. I'm bout ready to throw this thing out onto the highway!!

Besides the explorer.exe problems I have another issue with the windows installer. I had to disable hp digital imaging in the start up menu because it would make windows installer window open and I couldn't close it. Can't end task, cancel nothing. Well I figured that that was why the notepad was blank. so i enabled all that again, rebooted and ran the scan again. But still blank notepad. So I have no idea what I'm looking for to repair or replace. and I have the windows installer windows open again.

I'm cranky. I apoligize.

yes. I followed the directions and a blue window opened up. But for the 1st step listed below (from the link you gave me) what would I type, I don't know the file name


If the System File Checker tool cannot repair a file, follow these steps: 1.At an elevated command prompt, type the following command, and then press ENTER: takeown /f Path_And_File_Name
For example, type takeown /f E:\windows\system32\jscript.dll.2.Type the following command, and then press ENTER to grant administrators full access to the file: icacls Path_And_File_Name /GRANT ADMINISTRATORS:F
For example, type icacls E:\windows\system32\jscript.dll /grant administrators:F.3.Type the following command to replace the file with a known good copy of the file: Copy Path_And_File_Name_Of_Source_File Path_And_File_Name_Of_Destination
For example, type copy E:\temp\jscript.dll E:\windows\system32\jscript.dll.

Do you have good user data back ups? If you don't can you back up all the pics, documents, program data files etc. to another machine or media?

Was this machine of the shelf or home built? Can you get you hands on the Vista install CD or recovery media?

I was looking at options mostly, if the current repair efforts don't succeed....
