I accidently unregistered shell32.dll
by typing Regsvr32 /u "c:\winnt\system32\shell32.dll"

is this going to cause me a problem??? and how to I re-
register it (if necessary).

Thanks!

Hi Haydn,

Re-register it this way:

- Quit all programs that are running.
- Click Start, and then click Run.
- Type the following command, and then click OK:

regsvr32 /i shell32.dll

When you receive the "DllRegisterServer and DllInstall in shell32.dll succeeded."
message, click OK.

For more information about using the Regsvr32 tool (Regsvr32.exe), see the following
