When I try to execute any *.EXE or *.COM file, a pop up menu displays as: Windows cannot find Winsvrc.exe This program is needed for opening files of type "Application" Location of Winsvrc.exe D:\ I'm unable to edit registry also. Please help in this regard. Thanks and regards, SP Singh

I can't say for certain, as I have not seen it myself, but in the Win9x forum, this message seems to be coming up a lot. Most people seem to connect it to the Navidad Virus. Look in the Win9x forum... there are detailed steps there on removing it. Again, I never saw this personally, just relaying what I've heard. Hope it helps! -Dave C

IF can't run the "regedit" command under START | RUN , Go to Start | Program | MS-DOS Prompt, Command Prompt window appears. At the C:\Windows prompt, type the following commands and press the key after each command: ren regedit.exe regedit.com regedit seach for the key word " WINSVRC.exe" , it should list under " C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM\winsvrc.exe "%1" %* " entry, DELETE the whole entry, and restart the system. So far tested ok.
