How to Repair EXE Errors in Windows XP

1. Navigate to the 'Search' menu of your computer. Click 'Search.' Choose 'All Files and Folders.' Enter '.tmp' in the search box under the 'All or part of the file name' section. Press the menu arrow and choose to 'Search' your 'C' drive.
2. Delete each result that comes up in the 'Search Results' window. This removes each temporary file from your operating system.
3. Open your 'System File Checker.' This tool looks through the files on your computer and finds any damaged or lost files. Go to 'Start' and choose 'Run.' Then, enter 'sfc/scannow' on the command prompt and hit 'Enter.' If the tool locates any corrupt or lost files, just place your Windows Installation CD into your disc drive to recover the files.
4. Go to the web page of RegCure (see 'Resources'). This software allows you to find and repair EXE files. Install this program on your laptop or desktop. Then, click the tiny software icon to begin the installation process.
5. Start RegCure on your computer. Allow the software to run and repair all of your EXE issues.
