Re-install Riched32.dll

[Grandma]

I can no longer insert photos in email using Outlook. Error message says to
reinstall Riched32.dll. I have no idea how to do this as I only use my
computer and not repair it! I need step by step instructions.

If you are running Windows XP (likely - you posted in XP general),
then you may know how to use Windows Explorer. Your objective
would be to copy the Riched32.dll in dllcache to that folder's containing
folder, the system32 subdirectory of the Windows folder, overwriting the
Riched32.dll there - quick and easy. If you don't know what that means,
or worse - you do it and it doesn't work, then look into running
Sfc /Scannow:

You will need to have your XP install CD handy for Sfc to work, and
after you run Sfc, it may be necessary to redownload all updates.
