Guest Nardar Posted June 19, 2008 Posted June 19, 2008 I hope someone can help me!!! For the last few days, I've been trying to figure out how to replace what I believe is a corrupt urlmon.dll file. A number of programs (including Windows Explorer, System Restore, Palm Desktop, RegCure, Norton Anti-Virus Scan and others ...) begin to load, but then send me to an error message. (Firefox and Thunderbird work just fine.) When I go to eventvwr, I find the following message: Windows cannot access the file c:\windows\system32\urlmon.dll for one of the following reasons: there is a problem with the network connection, the disk that the file is stored on, or the storage drivers installed on this computer; or the disk is missing. Windows closed the program OLE32 Extensions for Win32 because of this error. A. the file does exist in Systerm32 B: re: network connection - I can access other computers on the network just fine, and they can access me. C: re: disk filed is stored on: chkdsk finds no errors D: re: disk missing: not an issue. I downloaded a replacement urlmon.dll to reinstall it, and I get the same error message when I try to use Windows Explorer. I've resorted to the cmd prompt to do some looking around, but when I try to do System Restore from the Run window, I get the same error message. It seems like I'm in a perpetual loop and don't know how to get out of it. I really hope you can help as I need my office computer back!
