A message to reinstall: MapI32.dll (Windows Search.exe) how to re - install.

Original title: Reinstall: MapI32.dll (Windows Search.exe)

After the installation of the update of Windows 8 for Windows XP, I get an error dialog box that indicates that I have to reinstall MapI32.dll (Windows Search.exe). How do I reinstall and why this happens?

Thank you.

E-mail address is removed from the privacy *.

I can assure you with certainty at 100% none of Microsoft has 'expert' ideas Support Engineer will not replace a missing mapi32.dll file.

These ideas are just more of their wild goose hunting to waste your time and get the points by posting useless ideas, not tested until they have links to the KB articles which will not work.

First, nor fashion all safe or clean boot replaces a missing file.

Second of all, the System File Checker don't know or don't care that file - and for the millionth time, I repeat is not what SFC/scannow, this isn't how it works and it's not what it is for.

Everything that this alleged "expert" needs to do is re-create the problem (which takes about 10 seconds) and to apply their own prosecution goose to see that none of these ideas will help.

Perhaps one day, these 'experts' will learn how XP works.

If I were Microsoft, I'd be embarrassed and ashamed of these representatives (then I would lay off).

If you mean that you see a message like this:

WindowsSearch.exe - Unable to locate component
This application has failed to start because the MAPI32.dll file not found.  Reinstalling the application may fix this problem.

If the file is missing, it may have been quarantined (effectively removed) by your antimalware/antivirus application not specified on your unspecified brand system and model with unspecified XP version and unspecified Service Pack, but you can replace it.

I downloaded a copy of XP Pro SP3 file you need on my SkyDrive (everyone has a SkyDrive for file sharing).

You can download it and when you do, place a copy of the file in these folders (assuming that Windows is installed on your C drive):

c:\Windows\System32

Here is the link to my SkyDrive and you can get the file you need here:

https://SkyDrive.live.com/?CID=6a7e789cab1d6f39&ID=6A7E789CAB1D6F39! 311

When you see the files available for download, you can not see the file extension (.exe, .dll, .cpl, .sys, .zip, etc.), but when download you them they will have the right extension.

When you download the file (especially if you use Internet Explorer), when you get a chance to save the file, your browser is unable to save the file with an extension (by example, .exe, .dll, .cpl, .sys, .zip, etc) then you will need to manually add the extension appropriate to the file when you download the file before you save it.

You can download the file without the extension, and then rename the file to add the appropriate extension.  You do not want to use a file named mapi32 when the name of the file should really be called mapi32.dll (if the downloaded file has no extension, you will need to change the name of the file to add the appropriate extension to make it work.

You then put the files downloaded to the appropriate on your system folder.

That may not solve all your problems, but at least you will be spending this part and we can then fix the rest.

    When you install a new version of the items, you are prompted to update the current catalog. Creating a new catalog with the data in the old. The new catalog has the same name as before and can be opened in the new version, the old catalog is unchanged, but renamed with a suffix-1 can be opened in the old version without any intervention on your part.

    If you do agree to the conversion prompt, you can do it later from the Catalog Manager; same for the other catalogues.

    Just be careful what you do in a catalog are ignored by the other, they cannot be updated by the other. This means that you will need to choose which version of catalog to choose to manage your files.

  • Windows Search.exe error "missing uncdms.dll" Windows 7

    I spent the better part of 12 hours today trying everything to get rid of this error message - including purchases and execution of two different registry cleaners. I tried to turn it off in Control Panel and then restart and turning back, as suggested in this forum. I even completely reinstalled Windows 7, who came back to defeat a group of earlier work. Nothing works - it's still there every time to reboot.

    Tried to manually install the online source .dll file - it wouldn't take it.

    I have a computer customized brand new with Windows 7 as an original clean install. He did not, until I migrated the files and the settings to my XP machine. I have subsequently removed all programs possible and which comes from the old computer (which, BTW, worked great) - all that's left are my photos and document files. I bought the computer and Windows 7, more precisely to upgrade my Adobe CS5 programs.

    I have another computer with Vista, which I did not like much at first, but it only took a few hours to beat him into submission, and we've been friends since. So far Windows 7 is a nightmare. (Enough to make me run screaming on the Mac.)

    In addition, he continues to move my desktop icons around regardsless the display settings (line up on the grid and auto align) be deselected. Grrr!

    I might have a Windows 7 installation disc buggy? Others have these problems? There, can anyone help?

    By selecting Start, control PaneWindowsl, programs and features, Windows features and uncheck Windows Search, I suspect that will stop the error. In earlier versions of Windows, Windows Desktop Search (now called Search) is a stand-alone program. With Windows 7, it became a turn on / turn off the function of the operating system. My feeling is that it changes the way your problem is solved.

    I would try to run the System File Checker.

    Hi B_Tan,

    Please take a look at the following information previously published by TaurArian:

    Some have reported that simply re-register the MSXML3. DLL seems to fix the problem.
    1. click on start.
    2. choose Execute.
    3. in the run box, type: regsvr32 MSXML3. DLL
    Press OK

    If this did not help, you may be re-recorded some files more:

    1. click on start.
    2. choose Execute.
    3. in the run box, type (pressing well after each one): -.

    net stop wuauserv

    Repeat the following:

    Also, I was using AVG 8.5 Free, SPYBOT - Search and Destroy and Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware. This machine is running XP Home Edition with Service Pac 2. Can you tell me which of these applications antivirus or anti-malware removed my scesrv.dll initially?

  • I have the software not compatible with Windows 8. How can I install it?

    You may have upgraded to Windows 8 or bought a new laptop with Windows 8 and can ask you how you would install any software that is made for an earlier version of Windows.  Windows 8 has a similar to Windows 7 for this purpose compatibility mode.

    NOTE: This process may not work, but it's a good starting point.  This will not work for each program/driver out there, but he has the best chance.  For software that is not removed, start with step 3.

    1. download the software/driver.

    2. start the extraction process and take note it is extracted to. cancel Setup after extraction finished.

    3. navigate to this folder of extraction. Right click on the Setup/installer file and select compatibility Troulbeshoot.

    4 follow the prompts in the troubleshooting and select the automatic settings option.

    5. Select the Test program when you are prompted.

    6. follow the installation.

    7. If no errors have been presented, it can work at this stage.

    Hope this information is useful.

  • Windows search index how to disable Internet Explorer history & MSOcache

    Win XP SP3

    I would like to deselect Internet explore history & MSOcache in the search indexer in Control Panel > Indexing Options.

    http://answers.Microsoft.com/en-us/IE/Forum/IE8-windows_other/remove-Internet-Explorer-history-from-indexing/a3fa70e3-0f57-40E9-b1c7-84edcc87c3b4?page=1&TM=1323255495109#footer>

    On the selection of control panel > Indexing Options the Indexing Options dialog shows Internet Explorer history as an included location but I can't find a way to deselect.

    This place does not appear in the change in the locations dialog. I tried left and do a right click, push all the buttons and so on without result.

    I also note that under C: MSOcache selected but grayed out there. If I try to disable the ToolTip message appears "can't deselect because you must first select the parameter" Index this folder for making faster "in the files properties Advanced attributes. For me this counter intuitive: surely the point should not even in the search indexer if this parameter is not defined, and it takes everything first to allow a quick search...? !
