Error 1931 & msscript.ocx

[Guest]

I have written a program in vb6. I have used install sheild to create the
setup.exe
During the install a get a pop up info box that say error 1931. The
installer service cannot update the system file
c:\winnt\system32\msscript.ocx because the fiel is protected by windows. I
have tried a couple of different fixes but so for no good, Also I only have
this issue with W2K computers. Thank you for your help.

Your package shouldn't need to replace it.

Since I did this post, I then made a setup.exe in vb and excluded that file
in the build. What happens next is the core dlls are installed, the system
then says that I need to re boot the computer for the upgrades to take
affect, I do the reboot and then the set up runs again..and I get a message
that says the exact same thing (about having to upgrade files and please re
boot) Thank you

There shouldn't be any reason to update core operating system files in your
package. The operating system may now be damaged. Windows 2000 gold installs
1.0.0.4615 of msscript.ocx Windows XP gold installs version 1.0.0.6626

From a command prompt;
sfc /scannow

You might ask them here about this.
