What dlls belong in c:\windows\system32
I have a dll in the system32 directory that I feel does not belong there.
I would like to find out which ones should be there. I found this, but it is no longer available. DLL Help application I posted this on a M.S. forum, but it is set up differently than other forums and I could not find my way back to where I posted. I am looking for some newsgroup that could give more detailed help. Thanks. |

Many applications place dlls there. Every system will be different. I currently have 2,746 of them in that location. I don't think listing them all would be useful information. |

I don't think listing them all would be useful information. I know there is a list of what Windows uses and places there on installation and upgrades. There is also documentation for other areas of interest, but it's limited to educators and other professionals. There may be a way to see which installed user programs place dlls there and maybe determine by process of elimination. The dll contained 2 code caves, which have legitimate uses and non-legit. |

Which Service Packs are preinstalled? What features are enabled? What hardware is installed? What 3rd-party addons are installed? Etc, etc. Any such list you may find is sure to be massive and unreliable. Here's a list all the dlls in my system32 directory. All of them are supposed to be there.

Andy The name of the dll that ends in t is what I deleted from the windows/system directory from within XP. It was marked as a system file, so I could not delete it from within Windows. I booted to my OpenSuse O.S. and renamed it to pkiview.xxx to prevent it from being used and to study it later and moved it to a Linux hidden partition. I am happy that it is not causing any more problems, but would like to find out the mechanism of how it was copied or created in the system32 directory. Andy |

Andy do did it right that way But a DLL need a extension denoting an executable the file So there more files to the Software For if The pkiviewT was in the system32 it has been backup You need too run Registry Editor @ C:\WINDOWS\system32\regedt32.exe Highlight My Computer First You see a Tab bar Click Edit Click Find Find What "pkiviewt" http://mynews.ath.cx/temp/pkivewt/ regist01.gif regist02.gif regist03.gif On the lift Side of regedt32 you see folders names we need to know the name When running Windows up plug it from the Internet only use the Internet with your Linux partition and give us the info from regedt32 so we came help you clean your PC |
