Re: Cannot Access Add/ Remove Programs

Create A Batch File
Please copy (Ctrl+C) and paste (Ctrl+V) the following text in the quote to Notepad.
Save it as "All Files" and name it fix.bat Please save it on your desktop.

Quote:
@echo off
copy /y "C:\WINDOWS\ServicePackFiles\i386\msi.dll" "C:\Windows\System32\msi.dll"
If exist "C:\Windows\System32\msi.dll" goto done
Echo Failed !!
Pause
del /q %0
exit
:Done
echo Please Press any Key and then Reboot
Pause
del /q %0
exit
Double click on fix.bat
This should only take a second

If it asks you to reboot please do so, and then try Add/Remove
Please let me know what happens
