How to Get Rid of a Crypnet.dll


1. Create a system restore point on your system. This is a vital failsafe which will ensure that any subsequent damage which may occur is not irreversible. Type 'System Restore' into the search bar and click on the System Restore program from the following selections. On the next screen click on 'Create Restore Point' and follow the instructions on-screen.
2. Determine whether the Crytpnet.dll process is indeed running on your system. Do this by pressing 'Ctrl + Alt + Del' and clicking on 'Start Task Manager.' From the subsequent box, click on the 'Processes' tab and look for 'Crytnet.dll.' If it is present, right-click on it and click on 'End Process' and then 'OK.'
3. Enter the system registry in order to find the Cryptnet.dll file. Open the 'Run' program on your system and type 'regedit' into the box before clicking 'OK.' This will give you access to the system registry.
4. Navigate through the parent folders in your registry by clicking on the folder names in the left pane of the registry; you can then look through the folders and files inside the parent folders in the right pane.
5. Right-click on 'Cryptnet.dll' and then click 'Delete' and 'OK' once you successfully find the file in your registry. Then click on 'File' and 'Save' to complete the changes.
