Hi Folks.. My problem is not so much the registering of MSIEXE.EXE but the location of where the msiexec.exe file is. It seems that the owner of the computer has a SYSTEM32 folder and a WIN2 folder which appears to be a copy of the SYSTEM32 folder. It seems that the WIN32 folder has become the default 'SYSTEM32' folder and not the original SYSTEM32 folder as per the system setup. When attempting to register MSIEXEC.EXE, an error occurs saying that 'An event was unable to invoke any of the subscribers' Anyone any ideas on what to do here. I don't want to get too involved with this computer as it belongs to a student. IF something goes wrong, I'll be left to clean up the mess. Regards Declan
