    shell32.dll problems

    everytime i do a virus scan with AVG free edition it says that my Shell32.dll file needs "changed" not infected or anything but just says action: change.

    although i thought AVG was gonna do that when it said it :P but it comes up every time i do a scan and was wondering...is that an important file? if it says that does that mean i will probably have to reformat or is it an easy fix/change?

    just a little confused about what its saying

    thanks for any help in advance

    Go to Start/Run and type in:

    regsvr32 /i shell32

    Click OK.

    Restart your computer.

    thanks alot for the response, but unfortunatly i still get the warning on AVG. Heres the piture



    And it always shows it at the start of the scan aswell.

    I done what you said and it came up a box saying it was successful. but still this problem.

    and by the way, i still dont really know, is it a serious problem? or just a small "glitch" so to speak

    If you are having no problems I would just forget about it.

    It is just an information line.

    It is where it is supposed to be and the /i shell32 command made sure it was installed.
