 ?APPHELP.DLL-error opening file. the system cannot find the file specified (2)
?USERENV.DLL- has same as APPHELP.DLL
Pink-OLE32.Dll

Yes.
You should let it fix any and all missing/corrupted files it finds.

Remember to re-boot afterwards...

Hello again,
 I haven't been back because i screwed up.

the file is linked to missing exportShell32.dll:SHGetFolderPathA
a device attached to this system is not running

This is the error message i keep getting
-i downloaded shell32.dll fom dll-downloads to replace mine
It was in Swedish and completely screwed up everything menus in swedish-lost deskktop-tried to replace with old one but couldn't because it was being used by other app.
So I reinstalled win98se from disk i got with pc
tried pc Manufacturer tech-they can't help.
  Bottom-line still getting this message-found out its Windows Shell Common DLL
 something about IE4
Just glad I can get back here finally.  Thanks again for your time.  Kiz

Hello Patio,
 sorry yes i did that sfc. it told me the file was not on my cd.  thats why i tried to find one to replace it with. Then i  downloaded the shell32.dll in swedish. Then i could not get rid of that so i did the reinstall.  It's in the same folder windows/system  shell32.dll version 4.72.3812.600.
