Default VBScript Runtime Error.

Hello Mike,

I installed/uninstalled several times.

The only thing I am certain of, in consequence, is that Instant Lock is
implicated. However precisely what happens is beyond my comprehension. All I
know is that I must re-intall Windows Script (mentioned in my first post) to
be able to run RegSrch (or re-install Instant Lock which has the same
effect).

The file scrrun.dll is the one for which confirmation of deletion is
required when uninstalling - however that .dll remains on my system as does
vbscript.dll after the uninstall (using Add/Remove). However the folder
Instant Lock remains in Program Files with two items in it -
configuration.ini (0KB) and scrrun.dll.(148KB)

I discover also that the scrrun.dll in the Instant Lock Program folder
(5.6.0.8820) is a different version to the one in Windows (5.6.0.8825) and
that the deletion of the former causes the error.

Also that VBSCRIPT.DLL is 5.6.0.8825 which baffles me completely (can two
files with different names have the same version number?).

I look forward to your explication, Mike. bg

Ben.

| I will do the same (install /uninstall ilock) and post back.

| I notice that vbscript.dll was created on my system today's date

| | Ben,
| |
| | It would appear that uninstalling ilock might have uninstalled or
removed
| | one of the files used by Windows Script. I'm pleased to read that
| | reinstalling WS v5.6 has resolved the problem.
| |
| | Sorry I don't have the time at the moment to see if I can replicate the
| | problem with ilock (install and then uninstall) but will try later
tonight
| | or perhaps tomorrow.
