View Full Version : Error Message At Bootup


Paul Berkow
August 15th 06, 05:26 PM
I recently tried Internet Explorer 7 beta. Didn't like it. Uninstalled it
from the Add/Remove utiltiy
Did a search on the C drive for anything to do with it, and deleted a
few items the search found.
Searched the Registry and found a few items, and deleted them.

After reboot, before it would come up to the Desktop, I got an error
message I had to Ok out of to get on to the Desktop.
"Windows cannot find %SystemRoot%\system32\cmd.exe"
I checked in the System32 folder and the cmd.exe file was there and
working.

I then went back into the Registry and found a line in the right pane of
Hkey_Local_Machine\Software|Microsoft\Windows\Curr entVersion\
RunOnce
String Value called IERESETICONS
Under Data, it's called %SystemRootT\system32\cmd.exe /d /q /c
%SystemRoot%\iereseticons
Thinking this was the culprit, I deleted it.
My search on the Internet for the word IERESETICONS came up
to do with Internet Explorer 7 beta

When I delete IERESETICONS, the next time I rebooted, I no
longer got the error message, BUT - the item shows back up in
RunOnce and when I rebooted the next time, I got the error message
again.

I've looked in the RUN folder just above and it's not there. Also in
the Run folder under Hkey_Current_User
Also I looked in the Startup folder in Programs
I did a search of the C drive and the Registry again, nothing showed up.

I did a System Restore back before I installed IE 7 beta, but that didn't
help either.

I did a Google search, and surprisingly I only found one item with no
answer to the problem.

How do I stop this error message from showing up after every bootup ?

What happened to %SystemRoot%\iereseticons?

What is happening is that that script file, does something that resets IE7
icons back to IE6 icons and then resets something in the registry that does
not put that item back in RunOnce.

If you are getting RunOnce item replaced on next reboot, there is something
else in the registry that is checking for something and since it is not
present (or present), replaces the RunOnce.

What I would try, rerun IE7 installation ... up to a point. Find the folder
where the item has been expanded, ready to be installed, and find the
subfolder update. Supposedly, in that folder is iereseticons.exe.

Do not install IE7 ... just monitor the folder until files are extracted.

You cannot delete files left behind after an Add/Remove until after you
reboot at least once. Certain items maybe placed in the RunOnce (or any of
the Run keys), for final cleanup on next reboot.

Doesn't matter since you installed a BETA to a test machine. Reformat.

Has Microsoft recognized this problem yet and do they have a posted solution?
I am reading through stings of postings and it looks like a potential
solution is convoluded. I dont want to try a bunch of crap and waste time to
see if it works unless i have to?

I have limited technical knowledge.

Last weekend I upgraded from ie6 to ie7. That's when my problems really
started. I am now suffering with a boot up error hich reads "Windows cannot
find %SystemRoot%\system32\cmd.exe". The file it relates to is
"ieresticons.exe" which reappears in my startup items automatically every
reboot - if though I tell Webroot's Spysweeper to ignore. Thanks for the
advice David - I have tried a clean reinstal of ie7 - yet the same error has
not disappeared.

Dave your a "star" for keeping an eye on this one. I fell of my chair when I
got an email telling me that I had recived a reply to my earlier post (10
minutes ago)!

By the way I forgot to mention in my original post - that i had taken a note
of the startup executable string for the IERESTICONS.EXE error, it reads as
follows ----> %SystemsRoot%\system32\cmd.exe /d /q /c
%systemroot%\iereseticons.exe .As earlier posts have pointed out this is a
HKLM: Run Once program which seems to run forever!!!!

It's rapidly approaching midnight here in the UK and the wife is nagging me
to get to bed. Speak soon. Paul

Hi Gary,

IERESETICONS - 2 months of bootup pain and counting!

In short Gary - NO.

I have sadly come to conclusion that the Microsoft community doesn't really
care about supporting a small group of ie7 users resolve their install issue.

Looking across the forums their are lots of people with very similar issues.
What we don't know is could the fault caused by the ie7 instalation be
resolved locally or should Mircosoft take an interest in resolving what I
believe is an "iceberg" issue. An develop a downloadable patch.

I have renamed the subject of the string hoping people will be drawn here to
support us. I dont really want to wipe my machine !
