Windows Forum / Windows XP / New Users / May 2008Roxio Creator Plus Dell Edition
I must have somehow deleted some registries for my Roxio program as I am not able to copy discs. I think I know which registries that are not working properly. These are the registries MSDXMLC.DLL MSXML2R.DLL MSXML3R.DLL MSXMLR.Dll Can I reregister these? If so, how do I go about doing it? Very new to the computer and must have made some sort of mistake. Any help is appreciated! Thanks,  SignatureKathy >I must have somehow deleted some registries for my Roxio program as I am >not [quoted text clipped - 8 lines] > is appreciated! > Thanks, There's a degree of confusion here - you want to reregister registries that you've deleted? The files you list are library files, usually just referred to as DLLs. If you've deleted them, you can't register, re-register or do anything with them! Why do you think it's these files in particular? And, to prevent recurrence, do you have any idea *how* they got deleted? I'd submit that a better course of action would simply be to reinstall your Roxio program. I can't reinstall the Roxio software. It can on my computer 2 years ago and I did not get a disc for it. Like I said I am still very new to compute use and I think I might have deleted these files running a registry clean up (free scan) which I thought I need to do and have since found out I shouldn't be doing it! When I check my McAfee systems guard log, it says a one time change has been allowed on your computer and states the following: Rule Type: Registry Process: C:\Program Files\Common Files\Sonic Shared\Sonic Central\Main\Mediahub.exe Process Version: 2.04.32 HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\policies\explorer\BackupNoCDBurning Does this mean anything? Roxio suggested that I just upgrade to a newer version, but all I really want to do with it is copy a CD or two and not much more.

If the registry cleaning tool you used had a backup/restore function, now's the time to use it - see if whatever it did can be reversed. Or try using System Restore to go back to a time just before you unleashed this registry tool. Maybe approach wherever you got the PC from and see if they'll let you have a Roxio CD now. (An unlikely route, but worth a shot.) Check whether these DLL files are actually *missing* - DLLs are usually in C:\Windows\System32 but may also be in your Roxio program directory. (You may have to enable "all files" to be seen in Windows Explorer in order to find them.) I don't see any reason why a *registry* cleaning tool should remove DLL files. Again, what makes you think it's these files in particular that are missing? Are you getting an error message? If so, please quote it in full. If they ARE missing, see if you've got copies of them somewhere else on your PC - maybe search your dllcache folder in C:\Windows\system32\ or in i386. (Or maybe even download them from a reliable source.) If you have them, you might be able to put copies back in C:\Windows\system32. Whichever way you might find them, you could try to register them: Start > Run > regsvr32 c:\windows\system32\filename.dll one by one, or Start > Run > regsvr32 "c:\Program Files\Roxio somethingorother\filename.dll" or wherever the files are. (Note - if there are spaces in what you need to put after "regsvr32", you will need to enclose it in quotes, as I have above) This may well not work - who knows what else the registry "cleaner" did to your system? Furthermore, you may have issues with different versions of the DLLs floating around. Alternatively, as it's just for light use and you don't seem to need all the other functionality of your Roxio program, look for free CD copying software: http://www.snapfiles.com/Freeware/gmm/fwcdburn.html or elsewhere. Not entirely sure, but I don't think the McAfee log is anything to worry about. It allowed the change - other people have had it blocked by anti-malware programs and lost CD/DVD functionality (Google "backupnocdburning"). >>I can't reinstall the Roxio software.

Another thought - try going to www.dell.com, Support & Help, Drivers & Downloads and plug in your system's Service Tag. They tie their version of the product to Dell motherboards, so it's just possible there's a download for Roxio there. |
