| Vista Home Premium 32bit | Re: Windows Explorer hangs when deleting or renaming files I used what is being suggested in the thread Deleting problems with Vista And found a problem with a file named "imageres.dll" in the System32 folder Does anyone knows what this file does/is? The log created with sfc /scannow shows the repair message "CSI 00000174 Hashes for file member \??\C:\Windows\System32\imageres.dll do not match actual file [l:24{12}]"imageres.dll" and "Repairing corrupted file [ml:520{260},l:46{23}]"\??\C:\Windows\System32"\[l:24{12}]"imageres.dll" Thank you |

I recieved a message to that I would need to reboot to restore the default and rebuild the indexing. After rebooting everything appears to be back to normal. |
