Add/Remove Programs Problem

Guest

HELP!!! W2KPro SP4 When I open the control panel and try to open the
add/remove programs app I get the following error message "An unexpected
error occured. Object doesn't support this property or method
res://sp3res.dll/default.hta Line82"
How can this be corrected. I get this same error message whether I sign on
under a user name or as the administrator. Thanks.

From the "Run" box try;
regsvr32 %windir%\system32\appwiz.cpl

regsvr32 %windir%\system32\webvw.dll
to rebuild several *.htt files

If unsuccessful try
sfc /purgecache
sfc /scannow

Or try the regedits described in;

If the problem persists, you'll likely need to perform an in-place upgrade.
