How to Fix PC Freeware


Reinstalling Application
1. Reinstall the freeware application in question. A number of factors could contribute to a corrupted program such as multiple applications being open simultaneously or antivirus software actively scanning your computer during program installation.
2. Go to the 'Start' menu and launch the 'Control Panel' applet. Click on 'Uninstall a Program' to launch the Windows 'Add or Remove Programs' feature.
3. Locate the freeware program you wish to remove, highlight it and click 'Uninstall.' Follow all necessary instructions given by the setup wizard until the application is removed from your computer.
4. Reinstall the freeware program as you initially installed it on your PC. If you installed it through an Internet download or CD-ROM, double click on the main installation file to launch the program's installation wizard and follow all setup instructions.
Using Compatibility Mode
5. Use the Windows Compatibility Mode to ensure the freeware program is capable of running with your operating system. Depending on the application at hand, it may not be fully compliant with newer operating systems. Thankfully, Microsoft Windows can force a software emulation of the operating system it runs on through its Compatibility Mode feature. Before proceeding, take note of the program's system requirements through its user's manual or main Internet homepage.
6. Right click on the program's main executable file and select 'Properties.' Go to the 'Compatibility' tab and select 'Run this Program in Compatibility Mode For.' Select the operating system best suited for the freeware application judging by the program's main system requirements previously noted.
7. Select other potentially useful settings such as 'Run in 640 x 480 Screen Resolution' and 'Run in 256 Colors.' Depending on the program's age, it may require a simpler setting like the aforementioned ones. Click on 'OK' to save all settings. Launch the freeware program to ensure it is no longer presenting any issues previously experienced.
Researching Error Code
8. Take note of any error code generated by the freeware application or any other odd behavior. If an error is displayed or if the program reacts in any given way while in use, there may be a relatively high chance of finding the source of the problem through further research.
9. Inspect the program's user's manual in the event the error message in question is commonly known. If present, there may be possible fixes or workarounds listed, all of which depend on the program in question.
10. Perform an Internet search on the error message given by the program in question. Use quotation marks and write the exact error message given or the exact behavior presented by the freeware application. In many cases, there may be other users experiencing a similar problem who often offer solutions to fix the PC freeware program at hand.

How to Fix the MS32DLL.dll.vbs Virus


1. Press 'Ctrl,' 'Shift' and 'Esc' simultaneously to open the Windows Task Manager. If a process named 'wscript.exe' is running, select it and click the 'End Process' button. The Microsoft Windows-based Script Host, as wscript.exe is fully named, is a legitimate part of Windows, but MS32DLL.dll.vbs needs it to run, so ending the process will stop the script.
2. Click on 'Computer' in the Start menu and press the 'Alt' key. Click on 'Tools' and 'Folder Options' and switch to the View tab. Select the 'Show hidden files and folders' radio button and click 'OK.' Browse in drive 'C:' and the Windows folder for MS32DLL.dll.vbs and delete it. If you can't find the file in either of those locations, press 'F3' to search your entire system for it. If you have multiple storage devices, look for the virus in each drive.
3. Press the Windows logo key and the letter 'R' simultaneously to open the Run dialog. Enter the command 'Regedit' to open the Windows Registry Editor. Browse to 'Computer\HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Windows\Current Version\Run' and delete any entry with MS32DLL in the title. Browse to 'Computer\HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Main' and see whether the Window Title key has the value 'Hacked by Godzilla.' Delete it if this is the case.
4. Press the Windows logo key and the letter 'R' once more and enter the command 'msconfig.' Switch to the Startup tab and uncheck any listings containing MS32DLL. Press 'OK' and restart your computer.

How to Reinstall a DLL


1. Reinstall any original software that generates error messages related to .dll files. Since .dll files are often installed fresh during the software installation process, reinstalling may work to repair numerous .dll files. In many cases, when only one program generates .dll error messages, simply reinstalling the program solves the issue. If you still need to reinstall more .dll files after this, proceed to the next step.
2. Access a website where .dll files can be downloaded for free. A link to one of these sites can be found below in the Resources section.
3. Search the site for the .dll files you need. The names of the problem .dll files will appear in the error messages; these are the .dll files you want to find. On the download page for each file, you should be able to review expanded details about the file, what programs use it and what it does. When you find a .dll file that you need, click the download link and save it to your computer.
4. Move the .dll files you download into the system folder for Windows. Every version of Windows has a system folder, but the name and location of the folder varies from one version to the next. In the 64-bit versions of XP and Vista, the folder can be found at 'C:\WindowsSysWOW64.' In the 32-bit versions of these systems, it's 'C:\Windows\System32.' In Windows 2000 and NT, it's 'C:\WINNT\System32.' In Windows 95 and 98, it's 'C:\Windows\System.'
5. Reboot your computer.
