    Has anyone found a solution to this error message? The
    file is located (as it should be) in winnt\system32, but
    I'm unable to open (most)files from the Control Panel
    without getting this message (altho I can open them direct
    from their .cpl location).

    I'm also receiving error messages when I try to load CD
    programs that "setup unable to update the MSI system
    component" (and I've already tried reinstalling this from
    the MS website) Again, the files are already on the
    system, where they "should" be.

    AND I receive error msg "problem with shortcut: failed to
    run" ....

    Not sure if all these are related????

    Signed,
    FRUSTRATED
    Thks for any answers :-)
