Media Player won't install
Trying to install MP9 on Win98SE.
It downloads from the MS website, installs, then comes up with the message: Error Starting program "The SETUP_WM.EXE file is linked to missing export ADVAPI32.dll:InitiateSystemShutdownExW." I don't understand the message: The dll is in windows/system (dated 1999?). The system is totally unaffected except that MP is not available. |

Your version of ADVAPI32.dll is not new enough for MP9. Try and find a
newer version. -- Jeff Richards MS MVP (Windows - Shell/User) "Nigel" wrote in message ... Trying to install MP9 on Win98SE.

From the WMP FAQ at http://zachd.com/pss/pss.html =
quote Q: Why do I get the error "UNREGMP2.EXE file is linked to missing export ADVAPI32.DLL:SetNamedSecurityInfoW" when trying to install the player? A: Your advapi32.dll file has been corrupted by rogue software on your box (I believe it is now version "4.71.0118.0", which is not the version it is supposed to be). In order to fix this, you will need to go the Add/Remove Control Panel, select the "Internet Explorer" option in this list, and then run the Repair option that it will offer. At that point you will then need to reinstall the Media Player, but you should be good to go from that point. /quote While your error is slightly different, the cause/cure is likely the same. -- Glen Ventura, MS MVP Shell/User, A+ http://dts-l.org/ http://dts-l.org/goodpost.htm "Nigel" wrote in message ...

It seems, IE6-SP1,
http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/d...displaylang=en (this link is one long line) has to be installed first: most likely the original IE5 is using in the system. WMP-9 won't work with IE5. -- Mikhail Zhilin MS MVP (Windows - Shell/User) http://www.aha.ru/~mwz Sorry, no technical support by e-mail.

Good point, Mikhail, and that may very well be the cause.

I'm lurking and in the generic en-us groups though. :) It's a pity I could not be at the last summit :( -- plenty of work last year. /off |
