re: unable to delete a file Monday, November 11, 2002 at 3:16 am Windows XP Annoyances Discussion Forum Posted by Raymond (2 messages posted) Ga naar de Start-knop Kies "Uitvoeren..." (of "Run...") Type "regedit" en druk op enter (u bevindt zich nu in het register!!) Verwijder de volgende registersleutel: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Classes\CLSID\{87D62D94-71B3-4b9a-9489-5FE6850DC73E}\InProcServer32 Let er goed op dat u niets anders wijzigt !! Sluit het Register af (menu Bestand - Afsluiten) Herstart de pc Het probleem met de avi's zou verdwenen moeten zijn Opmerking: het verwijderen van die register-sleutel heeft verder geen gevolgen.
