Hi, the hint with KB943144 was perfect. I tried it and it worked right away.
Unfortunately I wanted to work on th answerd from top to bottom. Also the
german translation of th KB-article was perfect understandable.
So the problem is gone with your help.
Tanks heaven! If it is not a hen-egg problem: why is it not possible to give
this information on a missing dll to the user directly from the update
client. It would be even better if the update software checks wether to dll
in question ist registered oe even better just registers the dll each time it
enters the process. This seemst to be a pitfall which could easily avoided. I
do not want to blame anyone. It is just a striking idea!
