• When I try to open the Control Panel, add or remove programs, a window appears saying "C:Windows\system32\rundll32.exe Application not found.

  Original title: rundll.exe error

  I checked the previous messages and can't seem to find a solution to this problem.  Recently I ran 3 different scans, i.e. sbybot, avast and Malawarebytes virus. After that I ran these anti-virus programs and remove viruses, I was not able to open any more virus scanners. Every time I tried, would open a window saying "Choose the program you want to use to open this file." If I try to download a new virus scanner, it says the same thing.

  When I try to open the Control Panel, add or remove programs, a window appears saying "C:Windows\system32\rundll32.exe Application not found. I checked this file on my c: drive\system 32 and see the rundll.exe file. I also copy and pasted the file rundll.exe my CD of Windows XP in c: Windows\System32

  Everything else seems to work fine on my computer, and I get no message on the rundll.exe file when the computer starts up first.

  Any help would be popular!

• Error: System 32\nvcpl.cpl. Cannot open the control panel.

  While trying to open Control Panel with Windows XP Professional, I get this error and the Control Panel does not correctly or at all.

  None of your Control Panel options don't work or is a certain (s)?

  Is that really you see the exact error message?

  The file nvcpl.cpl belong to the graphics card NVIDIA and the NVIDIA Control Panel Applet

  If you have any NVIDIA products installed, you should tell us more about your system as follows:

  Since the Microsoft Answers forum does not have any kind of information system request when a new question is asked, we know absolutely nothing about your system.  Not knowing the basic information a problem prolongs the frustration and the agony of these issues.

  Thank you MS Answers, allowing the resolution of simple problems as frustrating and a lot of time as possible.

  Provide information on your system, the better you can:

  What is your system brand and model?

  What is your Version of XP and the Service Pack?

  Describe your current antivirus and software anti malware situation: McAfee, Symantec, Norton, Spybot, AVG, Avira!, MSE, Panda, Trend Micro, CA, Defender, ZoneAlarm, PC Tools, Comodo, etc..

  The question was preceded by a loss of power, aborted reboot or abnormal termination?  (this includes the plug pulling, buttons power, remove the battery, etc.)

  The afflicted system has a working CD/DVD (internal or external) drive?

  You have a true bootable XP installation CD (it is not the same as any recovery CD provided with your system)?

  Do you see that you think not you should see and when you see it?

  If the system works, what do you think might have changed since the last time it did not work properly?

  Now make some clarifications:

  Click Start, run and enter in the box:

  Msinfo32

  Click OK, and when the system info summary appears, click on edit, select all (Ctrl-A), copy (Ctrl-C) and paste (Ctrl-V) the information back here.

  For information about video drivers, expand components, click view, click on edit, select all, copy and then paste the information here.

  There will be some personal information (such as the user name and the name of the system), and anything that turns information private for you, simply delete the pasted information.

  This will minimize back Q & A and eliminate guesswork.

• Cannot open the control panel and workstation - "Windows Explorer has stopped working"

  Original title - I can't open my computer or control panel.

  I try to open my computer or control panel so I can uninstall something I think that may have caused a problem. When I try to do so, a window opens saying "Windows Explorer has stopped working". I don't know what to do. I think it was some game, I installed recently which caused this.

  Restart your computer in safe mode by pressing F8 just before windows logo appears after intervention by the bios. And see if you can open my computer or control for safe mode. If you then uninstall the program/game where you doubt. also run msconfig and remove startup programs that you do not use frequently and do not trust. Also if you have recently added a toolbar or of any custom theme and then disable it. then reboot in normal mode and see if the problem persists. It will be useful.

  Good luck!

• Satellite A215-S7414 - cannot open the control panel

  I'm trying to get the dial upward through the phone line, but cannot access control panel. The screen acts like he wants to come but soon left out.

  The laptop itself is a battlefield. I have to disable the player application to Windows loading. I can't access Windows on my administrative journal to and instead go through another user, I created to manufacture and store music. Start menu opens, but most / all Windows clients will not open.

  I remember 'cleaning up' in the Panel of control for more than a year, I don't remember when the last time was that I could get into the controls. Any help on how get opened would be gladly appreciated.

  Hello

  To be honest I have never heard of these problems but theoretically, it could be a virus or something else or your Windows installation is damaged, who knows?

  Do you have an AntiVirus tool? So, I can recommend the AntiVir freeware tool. It s small and fast and I have pretty good experience with it.
  Check this box!

  The problem persists there for a few days? If so, you can try a system restore to an earlier point. :)

• Why don't I have as many files XP update [start / Control Panel / Add or remove programs / currently installed programs and updates]

  XP [start /control Control Panel / Add or remove programs / currently installed programs and updates]

  22 updates for ms office 2003 dating from 22/01/2007.

  8 updates for the 2007 office system compatibility pack that goes back to the 10/02/2010

  190 updates for Windows XP, which dates back to the 29/06/2006

  6 updates for windows xp media center edition 2005, which dates back to the 29/06/2006

  Are all these necessary, and if not, how can I do to clean them?

  Thank you.

  Hi Renee-me,

  I recommend that you do not uninstall the updates that are installed on your computer.

  Windows Update makes the secure PC and helps run smoothly.

  For more information, refer to this link: Windows Update

  We suggest to delete the Windows updates only in troubleshooting an issue that may have been caused by an update. Refer to KB 310312 for more information on how to use the disk cleanup to free up space on the hard disk.

  Hope the helps of information.
