Click to expand...

You are presumably using Adobe Reader or Adobe Acrobat. Best to simply
re-install. You can download a new free copy fo Adobe Reader from
www.adobel.com. If you are using Adobe Acrobat, dig out the CD you bought.

It is a mystery worth pondering why the wintrust.dll file went missing.
this not normal.
 
Rob,

I've downloaded an updated version of Adobe Acrobat reader
and it says that it could not successfuly download as the
wintrust.dll file was missing.

Hi,

Expand a new copy. Start/run msconfig, click on "expand file" (general tab)

File to expand: wintrust.dll
From: X:\I386
To: %windir%\system32

Where X is whatever letter is assigned your CD drive (you need your WinXP CD
for this), change it accordingly. If your system was preinstalled, you may
find this instead on the hard drive under C:\Windows\I386. If so, change the
"from" line accordingly. Reboot when finished.

Rick,

I tried but no luck yet...I found my xp CD. When I try to
put it where you suggest.."%windir%\system32"...it says it
doesn't exist.

I'll keep trying...i'm not the sharpest at computer stuff.

Thanks again for the suggetion.

Bob
 
Hi,

If you know where your system installation is, you can use that instead.
EG: C:\Windows\system32
