When I go through control panel and click on user accounts, I receive a
message "wrong number of arguments or invalid property assignment". How do I
correct this so that I can access user accounts? I am using WinXP Pro SP2.
I am an administrator on this machine. I have tried booting to safe mode,
logging in as Administrator, then using control panel, user accounts with the
same message noted above. All four members of my family can log into their
accounts without difficulty, but when user accounts is clicked, the same
message noted above appears. Thank you for your help.
 
Hi,

Possibly file corruption. Click start/run, type "sfc /scannow" and click ok.
This should validate the system file set and possibly prompt for the WinXP
CD to replace corrupted ones.

Curiously enough, as I delved further into the microsoft newsgroups posts, I found this solution which worked!
Just learned this. To resolve the problem, type these commands from Start,
Run dialog:
regsvr32 jscript.dll
If that does not help, execute the following commands as well.

regsvr32 nusrmgr.cpl
regsvr32 /i mshtml.dll
Thanks!
