Lost DLL files

[educe]

Hello

Just bought a new PC, and it has preinstalled Vista, unfortunatly, before I managed to get antivirus installed, I got a virus, this virus infected a dll file, and thus the antivirus deleted that file, Everytime I boot up now, I get the missing dll file dialog.

The DLL file is
ssbricks.dll or sssbribkcs.dll

Without having to reinstall, how do I get the file again?

Regards
Educe

Hi educe,

you may have to a system restore to get the DLL back.

See Using System Restore from the Vista Windows Recovery Environment for more info on how to do it,

Yeah i though about that, but I really would like to avoid that, because if I do that, i might as well just reinstall everything, as I would have to install all my programs again.

Why doesnt MS just put those blasted dll-files online.

Hi educe,

lets try the System File Checker. It will replace any corrupted files.

Please see John Barnett's Windows Vista Support: Syste File Checker (SFC) for more info on SFC and how to run it,
