Not a problem - I knew you had misunderstood my post, and I just wanted to ensure you didn't think I was attacking you.

Then tell me, how else would someone learn that there are registry entries
that are not valid? Especially someone as unskilled as the OP appears to be
when it concerns the registry?

After furious head scratching, NewScience asked:

| To Everyone (except poster):
|
| Blah, blah, blah blah!!! Yada, Yada, Yada, Yada!.
|
| Nowhere does it state in the original post that the person used any
| sort of registry cleaner.
|
| How about getting back to the poster's question.
|
| Alden24:
|
| Please repost, and insure that the pathnames are exact, e.g.,
|
| C:\ProgramFiles\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\Web
| Folders\pkmres.dll,15
|
| Does the pathname actually have ProgramFiles or Program Files?
| Please watch the spaces and quotes. Especially when dealing with
| errors based on pathnames.
|
| "um:content-classes:catalog\DefaultIcon"
|
| um or urn?
|
| Does C:\Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\Web
| Folders\pkmres.dll file exist?
