If the module is in System32 and you are positioned there (i.e., the current directory is that) then that command should work; otherwise you could give it a complete path specification and run the command from anywhere. Sometimes it is easier just to Run... the command (e.g. press Win-R and enter it in the Run... dialog since it seems to have a larger set of paths to execute from than even the PATH shell variable.) Also, was there a code besides that message? A code could signal that the missing module is a *dependent* module of the module that you are trying to register. E.g. compare the distinction between "...GetLastError returns 0x00000485" and "...GetLastError returns 0x000000002" in this article: <title>KB249873 - Explanation of Regsvr32 Usage and Error Messages</title> While you are there in your cmd window in System32 please enter the following command and capture the results: dir wuau* so we are clearer about what you actually have installed still, in spite of all those "misleading" rollback messages.  If everything still seems OK and regsvr32 wuaueng.dll is still failing please try doing it in safe mode too the way that poster hixcks discovered helped with a similar problem (link available in my first reply to this thread). Good luck Robert --- |

Hi
C:\WINDOWS\system32>dir wuau* Volume in drive C has no label. Volume Serial Number is E454-D829 Directory of C:\WINDOWS\system32 03/08/2004 13:02 113,944 wuauclt.exe 03/08/2004 14:01 167,704 wuauclt1.exe 03/08/2004 13:03 167,704 wuaucpl.cpl 03/08/2004 13:07 1,081,112 wuaueng.dll 03/08/2004 14:03 186,136 wuaueng1.dll 03/08/2004 23:56 6,656 wuauserv.dll 6 File(s) 1,723,256 bytes 0 Dir(s) 45,334,650,880 bytes free I booted to safe mode - and went back to basics - doing : REGSVR32 /u atl.dll REGSVR32 /u wuapi.dll REGSVR32 /u wuaueng.dll REGSVR32 /u wucltui.dll REGSVR32 /u wups.dll REGSVR32 atl.dll REGSVR32 wuapi.dll REGSVR32 wuaueng.dll REGSVR32 wucltui.dll REGSVR32 wups.dll all fine *except* wuaueng.dll <-- same error as in normal mode; pop-up from 'RegSvr32' with the error [LoadLibruary("wuaueng.dll") failed - The specified module could not be found.] No other error of GetLastError info. I wonder if it is a dependant file that is missing .? How do I check ..? I will prob have to get some tools so download points for those gratefully recieved also RG (WD) "Robert Aldwinckle" <> wrote in message news:<Oy#74e#>... > "WD" <W.D.@dickthebuilder.com> wrote in message > news: om > ... > > WD, > > There seems to be a contradiction in your last description. > On the one hand the wuaueng.dll exists: > > >> It might be interesting to drill down to all those .cab files and open > >> them up to verify that they contain what we think that they should contain > >> ---e.g. replacement modules for all the ones that you deleted, > ... > > The Roll-back messages above seem to be mis-leading - the .cab files > > all contain what seem to be working and up-to-date copies of the files > > Pat had me delete.
