Shawn,
Thanks, but I did copy it over. I do have the feeling that I may be overlooking something simple though. I have attached a screenshot of my error.
It looks like it can't find the vbscript file. Double check to make sure that you have these files below.
C:\Windows\System32\vbscript.dll
and
C:\Windows\System32\wscript.exe
As a test, download and merge the vbs option in the tutorial below to restore it's default associations to see if that gets rid of the error for you afterwards.
Default File Type Associations - Restore
Shawn,
I have both the vbscript.dll and wscript.exe files. I also downloaded and merged the vbs option in the tutorial and restarted my computer but still got the same error.
Shawn,
It appears my default is referencing the wrong location, could this be the issue?
Yep, it looks like McAfee messed with it. If you like, download and merge the REG file I attached below. It will change the path in the registry to what it should be by default. If you get an error that part of the REG file couldn't be merged, then you will need to take ownership of the InprocServer32 key using step 3 in OPTION THREE of the tutorial below first, then merge the REG file again.
Take Ownership of file - Vista Forums
When finished, hopefully the shortcut will run without getting that error anymore. :)
Shawn,
That did the trick! I actually just gave User and Administrators full control in permissions for the InprocServer32 key.
Thanks for all of your help! I would have never figured this out by myself.
