shlwapi.dll error

When I try to get into My Computer or folders on my desktop, or control panel, or various other things, I was getting an error message saying "Explorer has caused an error in shlwapi.dll. Explorer will now close" Now instead of saying shlwapi.dll it is saying <unknown>. If I download shlwapi.dll, will this fix it?
