Sidebar can't start: "The ordinal 60 could not be located in thedynamic link library ATL.DLL"

[John Wong]

hello all,

My Sidebar can't start, with an error message:
"The ordinal 60 could not be located in the dynamic link library
ATL.DLL"

I have tried regsvr32 -u and then regsvr32 for the following files,
but it still doesn't run
atl.dll
sbdrop.dll
wlsrvc.dll

Any clue?

Hi,

Remove gadgets from the sidebar until it starts properly. The last one
removed is the problem.

But the whole sidebar can't start... So, no gadget has ever started to
begin with...

Try running SFC.
