Explorere.EXE Error Message

[Guest]

I recently installed SP2 on one of my computers and now when I try to boot up
my computer I get an error mesage that reads:

Explorere.EXE - Entry Point Not Found

The procedure entry point SHCreateThreadRef could not be located in the
dynamic link library SHLWAPI.dll.

If anyone knows a way how to fix this please reply ASAP! Thanks!

I was able to fix the problem by pressing ctrl-alt-del and going to the task
manager. Choose new task from the applications tab and type cmd for a command
shell. I copied 3 files from a working computer to the one that doesn't they
are:

c:\windows\system32\shlwapi.dll
c:\windows\system32\shell32.dll
c:\windows\explorer.exe

You will have to burn them to a cd to copy them, or at least shell32.dll and
rename the exsisting dll's before you copy the new ones in place. I have
successfully fixed at 3 out of 3 computers with this.

Hope this helps
