The Useful DLL etc Files

Do you ever get those horrible messages
which sometimes appear on your screen telling you so politely
that it cannot find this or that .dll file and some of the other
error messages which can be easily solved.

Listed below are some of the commonest .DLL files which get lost off PCs.

The Main cause of losing these .dll files is un-installing.

When the machine asks you if you wish to keep these files when you are un-installing it is better to keep them if you are uncertain. The dialogue box will show where it is being kept. If they are in the Windows System Folder I usually click to keep the dll.

Download those you would like to have and unzip to your Window's 'System Folder'
Left click and 'Save' - or - Right click and 'Save Target As'

DirectX2D.dll     KERNEL32.dll
MSVCRT10.dll    MSVCRT20.dll    MSVCRT40.dll
VBrun100.dll     VBRUN200.dll    VBRUN300.dll

"While offering my best at all times I will accept no responsibility for assisting. It's their choice to use a file[s] and with dlls nothing is guaranteed.

Often there are different versions and so-called "silent" updates so on occasion a file sent won't work. I can however guarantee that all files will be virus free and scanned outgoing with Norton2003".


Before spending hours on the web looking for these dll files which go missing, please do check your installation/programme disks for these files.

A simple search using the windows search facility found on the start bar or have a look using windows explorer at the contents of your installation/programme disk could save you hours of needless searching on the web.

9 out of 10 request received are for files I know people have already on their installation disks, They are not aware that they can copy them straight onto their computers.
