    Hello, I tried to run one of my programs on a computer however I got the following error message: Error Starting Program The WINSCHEDULER.EXE file is linked to missing export SHELL32.DLL:SHGetSpecialFolderPathA. The computer has Windows 95 (4.00.950 b) and Internet Explorer 5.5 (5.50.4134.0600) Is there anybody who knows or guesses the source of the error? Thank you for any helps in advance. Regards. Mustafa Demirhan

      I think you've got a SHELL32.DLL version earlier than 4.71. Internet Explorer 5.5 doesn't update the SHELL32.DLL. It's updated only on Windows 95 or NT4 when you you install Internet Explorer 4 with the integrated shell option (aka desktop update). A clean way of fixing it is to un-install IE 5.5, install IE 4.01 with desktop update and then re-install IE 5.5. ------------------------- Benoit Devigne http://www.bdevigne.com contact@bdevigne.com
