Hi NG,

In hunting down my .NET Framework issue I had a failure of eventvwr.exe.
The two MAY be related, however eventvwr.exe does not use MSCOREE.dll nor
does the error message seem to relate. When I execute eventvwr.exe it
loads, but then gives me the following error dialog box:

MMC cannot initialize the snap-in:
Name: Event Viewer

CLSID: FX:{b05566ad-fe9c-4363-be05-7a4cbb7cb510}

Hi Marco & NG,

My OS is Vista Ultimate and the CLR issue is explained in a few earlier
posts with my name on them. Actually, Aaron Stebner has explained in a
personal e.mail message that eventvwr.exe does indeed depend on the .NET
Framework. So when I fix that problem, eventvwr.exe will once again execute
properly. Thank you for the references.

Cheers,

Bob
