Installing .. advpack.dll

Thu, 20 Oct 2005 06:24:25 Z

Not sure if this is where to put this question but I can't find anything else on these forums (shrug?). I'm trying to install the 2.0 redistribution package and get an error with c:\windows\system32\advpack.dll when trying to install. Any suggestions?

The reason I'm looking to install it is because I have an application that requires it. Maybe I actually need something different? Ugh. lol

What Operating System are you trying to install to? Is it a 32 bit OS or a 64 bit OS?

Thanks,

carzylady,

Can you try the following:

Save the .NET Framework setup on your local drive
Extract the package by executing the following:
run the following command with the EXE that was extracted
dotnetfx.exe /c

You will be prompted, and go ahead and enter a path to extract the files.
such as c:\dotnetfx

Then go that that location and launch install.exe

Let me know at what point you see failures.

Thanks,

awong,

Can you try the instruction above provided to crazylady? The package name for 64 bit will be NetFx64.exe. Download it and run it with the /c command to extract it.

Are you using an AMD64 or Intel64 machine?

Thanks,

Since you are running the 32 bit OS, you will need the 32 bit .Net Framework redistributable.

Please install from

Hello,

Might be a silly question, but... NTFS is what type of OS?? I still get eh same problem when trying to install the x64 version and gthe link you provide is x86. Neither of these work, I get an error saying I need a higher version of .NET when I use the x86. Any help would be appreciated.

Thank you

1. Remove advpack.dll (use Unlocker if it says the file is in use)

2. Place the advpack.dll from here in the spot of the old advpack.dll which you have just removed.

Did you install the windows xp 64 bit version or the windows 32 bit version?

If your trying to install a 64bit driver on 32 bit win xp you will get this message.

Solution: If your running on a 64 bit processor, install the 64 bit windows xp.

I have been all over the net trying to find a way to reinstall Net Framework 2.0 because I stupidly tried to install it before installing the redistributable pack. They keep telling me to delete advpack.dll and then try to reinstall Net Framework 2.0. I have had prior experience with dll's and it was messy. I don't want to delete a dll unless I have to. Is it safe to delete this dll? And can it be safely reinstalled once I have deleted it? I would really like to know. Will Internet Explorer 7 automatically include Net Framework 2.0? And if it does will it fix my mistake? Please let me know. By the way, my operating system is Win XP Pro. service pack 2 with 32 bit P4 processor.

I had the same problem described in prior posts on this thread:

Error creating process <C:\DOCUME~1\jsmith\Local Settings\Temp\IXP000.TMP\install.exe
Reason: C:\WINDOWS\System32\advpack.dll

I got around it with the trick described in a later post (netffx64.exe /c), but when I tried to run the install exe, nothing happened; the msi file ran, but gave an error message about being incompatible with my machine. I have Windows XP service pack 1 (when I tried to install service pack 2, I got stuck in a loop on reboot [boot up partway, shut down, boot up partway, etc.]) and had to remove it) with an AMD Athlon 64 p646 bit processor, which should be compatible with netfix64.exe . any ideas?

How can I tell if i have the 32 or 64 bit OS, because I too cannot install the Microsoft.Net Framework. I looked at the computer properties, but it just says XP Professional.

Asked for location .... using the browser I directed installer to the .net folder.

The install completed without error.

I took the deep plunge. I repaired my Windows. Needless to say that when I tried to reinstall Net Framework 2 SDK it still didn't work. It gave me the same error. Microsoft has no better suggestions. I guess I will have to buy a new hard drive and start all over again. Or I guess I will wait until Windows Vista comes out. This is so aggravating.

I built a new computer and this time I installed the software in the right order. And guess what? I got the same error. I'm going to buy a copy of Windows Vista. I only wish someone knew what was going on with the Rich Text Box. The Rich Text Box of Visual Basic 6 ceased working and I need it for one of my projects. I haven't found any solution yet. Any Ideas?

Hi,

I am using windows server 2003.

Using NetFx64.exe /c command I have extracted the files.

When I click on 'install.exe' I am getting the following error eventhough I have logged in as the 'administrator'.

'windows cannot access the specified device,path,or file. you may not have the appropriate permissions to access the item.'

Please help.

I am running Vista. I have exactly the same problems as all the people in this thread - and I can't run the program with the /c parameter (not even sure how to do it within Vista, it won't run from the command prompt even though I am trying it from the directory where the program is installed).

I have downloaded the dll from the link provided - I checked and there is actually one in the correct directory and it is 122kb (it came installed with the machine) and the new one I've just downloaded is 98kb. However, even though I am the Administrator, Vista just WON'T LET ME put the new one in the \system32 directory!!!!!! Nor will it let me delete or rename the old one!

This is sooooo frustrating.

Help!

As my colleague found, here is what is causing it.

Sometimes the installer cannot write into your user's %TEMP% directory.

So, what you need to do is to create, for example, a temp directory "C:\Temp\" on your C drive and then change the value of the %TEMP% environment variable to this directory path. After that you can run the installer and everything should be fine. At least it was for me.
