Try including the full path, such as:

regsvr32 %windir%\system32\filemgmt.dll

hi Ramesh

I looked at some of the solutions and from Article ID : 324757
Cannot get into services manager, but went and completed steps 2 to 11 but
could not follow step 13 as cannot access “manage” I have deleted one of the
printers and reloaded it, but it will still not print, it says that it is
waiting for info from the printer.

If I try to run the reg server it comes up with this error message
LoadLibrary(“filemgmt.dll”) failed – the specified module could not be found

I also cannot load pastel 2007 as it gives a run-time error message as it
cannot find WBtr32.dll. Are these problems all related?

Is it time to reload windows or is there some way I can run a repair

thanks
regards
