Need most recent copy of shlwapi.dll for Windows ME
 

I need the most recent copy of SHLWAPI.DLL for __Windows ME__.

I restored a copy from the CABS but it doesn't play well with some
other DLLs.

I was able to get the thing up-and-running enough to check my mail,
etc. by restoring a couple of other DLLs.

But ... my computer is NOT HAPPY. She wants the most recent
SHLWAPI.DLL :GRIN:

Thanks.

Barb,

You probably need to reinstall the latest (last) cumulative security
update for IE6 SP1 which was released in June 916281.

Getting a copy of this hotfix however is far from easy as both the Windows
Update site and also the Windows Update Catalog seem to be giving problems
to users when accessed using Win Me and I can't find the Win Me version of
this patch at the Microsoft Download Center.

The easiest way to get a patch would possibly to use a PC running XP and
using this PC go to the Windows Update Catalog
(http://v4.windowsupdate.microsoft.co...n/default.asp).
Click "Find updates for Microsoft Windows operating systems"
Select "Windows Millennium Edition"
Click Advanced Search and enter 916281 in the box "Contains words ..."
Click Search and then on the next screen click "Critical Updates and
Service Packs (1)"
Click Add and then "Go to Download Basket" and download the patch to the
PC (Note this does not install the patch).
Now transfer the patch to your Win Me PC and install. The patch is 3.6MB
in size so best transferred using a usb thumb drive.

Please post back and let us know how you get on.

Which, as you have already said, is the original version for IE5.5 that is
contained in the Win Me cab set.

Mike: Thanks for the suggestion. I don't have access to another

In which case you will have to try and access the Windows Update Catalog
from your Win Me PC. It's a bit of a lottery nowadays but you might
strike lucky. Best of luck.

I don't know the version of IE that you are running, my suggestion was
based on your running IE6 SP1 however if you are still running IE5.5 then
I would suggest installing IE6 SP1 once you manage to access the Windows
Update Catalog or site.
