Guest glee Posted August 8, 2007 Posted August 8, 2007 Re: .dll file,psapi.dll Yes, as MEB mentioned, it is supplied by the application when installed, if needed. Adobe Acrobat Reader 7 (which doesn't install on Win98, BTW), for example, adds a version of the file to its folder. A couple of years ago there was a rash of psapi.dll error messages being posted in the 98 groups, caused by a CoolWebSearch variant apparently aimed at XP, that expected to find the file.

I see. MEB hit it on the button, then, (but his post actually wasn't showing until after I posted mine). I thought it might be something like that, because inside the Properties of Psapi.dll is mention that Microsoft actually wrote it.
