Hi Running certain applications on Vista shows the following error message.

"The procedure entry point ExtractVersionResource16W could not be located in
the dynamic link library SHELL32.DLL"

How to get rid of this?

Looks like that function is no longer in the Vista shell32.dll, as it is in
XP, so the software would need to be re-written.

You could try copying over a shell32.dll from XP or your previous OS, and
try popping it in the same directory as the application executable, but no
guarantees that that would work.
