CAPICOM

[LindaA]

download books from my local library. I am getting an error that reads
unable to acquire license for download. Unable to create CAPICOM object used
to generate hash strings ( Invalid class string)

I have downloaded the latest version of Windows Media Player, reinstalled
Overdrive from the library that transfers the book, reinstalled Capicom.
Checked for any updates I might have missed and nothing has worked for me.

The only change since my last download is that I set up a wireless network
for our home..I am amazed that I even got that to work...I am really inept
especially when I read class strings and hash strings...



Any ideas out there???

Is this the download you installed: Platform SDK Redistributable: CAPICOM?

ERROR Verbose mode requested, but CAPICOM library appears to not be loaded

What versions of .Net Framework you have installed?.
Run this command:
sfc /scannow click [OK]

If you use Overdrive Media Console - I just started having the same
problems and got this back form an email to them:
