MESSAGE OF MISSING FILE IN STARTUP: "de32gen.exe"
I have a Windows XP Home Edition SP2.
When I start up my computer they appear a window with following message:
“Windows cannot locate “C:\windows\system32\de32gen.exeâ€. Certify that the
name is correct or …â€
When press OK button they appear another window with following message:
“Cannot load or execute “C:\windows\system32\de32gen.exe†specified in the
registry. Certify that the files exist in your computer or remove the
registryâ€

(the message referred below is traduced from Portuguese so that cannot be
exactly as is appear in English windows version).

How can solve the related problem?
