Hello - can anyone tell me how to locate this file/macro? I have just
reinstalled Windows XPHome with SP2, but apparently this is missing. I have
downloaded Flashplayer & Shockwave latest but no luck.

Thanks in hope.

How does this relate to Windows Update?

You tell me!!! All I know is that I reinstalled Win XP Home, and keep getting
messages that this file/macro or whatever cannot be found. Cannot even do the
MS Scan. As I thought it was something to do with graphics (as some do not
load on sites like Explorer) I downloaded Adobe Flash-player and Shockwave.
All MS/Windows updates are current.

Can you help?

Tried this - tested ok. Have uninstalled and reinstalled SP 2 and all
updates. No.good. Tried to install several programms all with the same
result "could not find file "swflash.ocx" including Skype and Messenger,
which installed 99%. This one file is causing hell on my computer. Surely
this file should be available from MS? Thanks.
