Cannot Access Add/Remove Windows Comonents or turn on Intrusion Prevention

Thanks for the clarification on the OS version. And what did you find out about the msmqocm.inf file? If present, try taking ownership of it, then try Add/Remove components again in normal mode.

 

Hello again,
checked in the inf folder and msmqocm.inf is not present
Regards
Peter

 

Lets expand a new msmqocm.inf file. An XP cd will need to be present in the cd drive, else the i386 folder present on the drive. Open a command window and paste the following line then hit enter. Please substitute the letter X with the drive letter of your cd drive or adjust the path to the 1386 folder.

expand X:\i386\MSMQOCMW.IN_ -r c:\windows\inf

Once expanded, open the inf folder and rename the msmqocmw.inf file to msmqocm.inf
Try the Add/Remove applet again.

 

Hello again,
Do not have an XP cd, it came pre-installed.

Tried the copy and paste, adjusting the path etc but it keeps aying "cannot open input file" (I think I've done it right)


Regards
Peter

 

Search the drive for a folder named i386 and if present, see if it contains the file MSMQOCMW.IN_. If present, adjust the path to reflect the path of the i386 folder.

 

Hello,
Tried that and no it doesn't contain that file
Regards
Peter

Paste it into a blank notepad and save it in C:\Windows\inf as;

Filename: msmqocm.inf
Save as type: All Files (*.*)

Try Add/Remove components again.

Oh, make sure the sysoc.inf file still has the following line present.

msmq=msmqocm.dll,MsmqOcm,msmqocm.inf,,6

 

Hello,
Did as you suggested, Can see "msmqocm.inf" file in the inf folder.

Can see "msmq=msmqocm.dll,MsmqOcm,msmqocm.inf,,6" in the sysoc inf file.

But still cannot open Add/Remove Windows components

Getting error message saying "Setup Library msmqocm.dll could not be loaded or function Msmqocm could not be found" " Specific error code is 0x7e "

regards
Peter

 

Remove the line from the sysoc.inf file now and let me know what you get then.

 

Hello,
Removed the line as you suggested but got the same error message
Regards
Peter

 

Hmmm ..... lets put the original sysoc.inf file back in place. Copy the following text and paste it into a command window.

ren %windir%\inf\sysoc.inf sysoc.inf.old
copy %systemdrive%\sysoc.inf %windir%\inf
exit
cls

See if we're back to the original error of "Application could not be installed "

 

Hello,
Did as you sggested and yes we're back to the original error of "Application could not be installed "
Regards
Peter

 

Well shucks ........ lets check for the existence of the files listed in the sysoc.inf file. I wrote a little utility to do that named inf_check.exe
Download it here and run it, then post the log it creates.

 

Hello,
Tried to download but could not connect to URL.
Error Message reads as follows :

The requested URL /downloads/inf_check.exe was not found on this server.

Additionally, a 404 Not Found error was encountered while trying to use an ErrorDocument to handle the request.

Hello,
Since my previous post I have manged to borrow an XP cd if that is any help
Regards
Peter

 

Not sure what happened with inf_check, but I've uploaded it again. Link should work now.

Hang on to that cd ........ we'll probably make use of it. Lets make sure the files are there first.

Hi Peter,

First make sure the XP cd version matches your operating system version, eg; SP1 or SP2, then click Start>Run, type

sfc /scannow

then hit Enter. Insert the cd if prompted. Reboot when complete and check Add/Remove again.
