Can't fix scriptengine "VB script" for script C:\Users\User|Appdata\Temp\tmp8FC1.vbs

Can't fix scriptengine "VB script" for script C:\Users\User|Appdata\Temp\tmp8FC1.vbs

 

Windows Vista Home Basic 32bit, SP2

I am unable to bring up any Microsoft webpage by clicking on "Event Log Online Help"

I think this problem came up when after I deleteed several things including antivirus

When I Click on link in "event" EventLogOnline Help :

I get this:

Can't find scriptengine"VBScript" for script

C:\Users\Cris\AppData\Temp\tmp8FC1.vbs"

I have done all of that is mentioned below, and I think I am missing a registry entry, although sfc\ scannow does not tell me that . It tells me, it is repairing on next boot up, but it never does. I rerun and rerun the same scan and it tells me the same thing.

 See below, how I have tackled the problem so far. I am at a loss now.

Can anyone help?

"

This is what I get when I open adminstative tools" Windows Power Shell"

 ( opened as administrator)

In yellow it shows this:

:

Warning: File C:\Windows\system32\WindowsPowerShell\v1.0\Modules\PsdDiagnostics\PsDiagnostics.psm1 cannot be loaded because the excution of scripts is disabled on this system. Please see"get-help about_signing"for more details.

Errors occurred while importing modules. To view the errors, type "$error"

 

I did put in "$error" under the command prompt in the "Windows PowerShell " and this comes up:

Cannot load file Powershell snap-inMicrosoft.Windows.Diagnosis.SystemIndo.MonitorInfo because of the following error; Could not load file assembly `file:///C:\Windows\Temp\SDIAG_4ecacObc-e7a7-8c96-8365d8147237\MonitorSnapin.dll` or one of its dependencies. The system cannot find the file specified

I then ran from command prompt: regsvr32 vbscript.dll

This window poped -up:

The module"vbscript.dll" was loaded but the call to DLLRegisterServer failed with errorcode 0x80004005.

For more information abput this problem search online using the error code as search term

I then went to command:

Typed the following command: regsvr32 jscript.dll

It stated this suceeded.

Then

typed the command again: regsvr32 vbscript.dll

 

This window poped -up again:

The module"vbscript.dll" was loaded but the call to DLLRegisterServer failed with errorcode 0x80004005.

This is the advise given in microsoft forum:

http://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/jscript/thread/b7d1a35f-3759-4217-91ba-e4416ac19d78

I did the following, and it did not work!!  The reset does not seem to have worked on my problem nor on the error code.

This was the advice given:

Same here. NOTHING worked for me, until I found this nifty little solution. Here it is ; )

1) download SubInAcl at http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyId=E8BA3E56-D8FE-4A91-93CF-ED6985E3927B&displaylang=en

2) Go to C:\Program Files\Windows Resource Kits\Tools

??you can paste this into your browser to go there) and create a notepad file called reset. Paste this into the file:

subinacl /subkeyreg HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE /grant=administrators=f
subinacl /subkeyreg HKEY_CURRENT_USER /grant=administrators=f
subinacl /subkeyreg HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT /grant=administrators=f
subinacl /subdirectories %SystemDrive% /grant=administrators=f
subinacl /subkeyreg HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE /grant=system=f
subinacl /subkeyreg HKEY_CURRENT_USER /grant=system=f
subinacl /subkeyreg HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT /grant=system=f
subinacl /subdirectories %SystemDrive% /grant=system=f

3) save the file as reset.cmd Remember to change the file type to "all files" and not just "Text"
4) a reset command should show up, run it.

After you let the command finish running, the 0x80004005 error should be taken care of

THIS DID NOT WORK FOR ME.

When I click on "Event online Help" I now get the following:

 

Can't find scriptengine"VBscript" for script. C:\Users\Chris\Appdata\Local\Temp\tmp7A90.vbs

 

Entering into the command prompt the following: regsvr vbscript.dll

still gives me:

The module"vbscript.dll" was loaded but the call to DLLRegisterServer failed with errorcode 0x80004005.

For more information about this problem search online using the error code as search term

( I thought I had fixed that error with above procedure, but apparently not)

I then used the systemfile checker ,

command promt : sfc/ scannow

The answer is: Windows resource ptoection found corrupt files and succesfully repaired them. Details are included in CBS.log C:\Windows\Logs\CBS\Cbs\log

The system file repair changes will take effect on next reboot.

The question now is can I repair VB script language registry setting as suggested here.

http://techlogon.com/2012/11/26/how-to-fix-the-error-cant-find-script-engine-vbscript-for-script

In the registry editor I am supposed to find:

HKCR\CLSID\{B54F3741-5B07-11cf-A4B0-00AA004A55E8}\InprocServer32.

HKCR\CLSID  should have the entry the vbscript.dll under C:\windows\system32\vbscript.dll

I do have HKEYClasses Root\CLSID but not the entire key above, I have no Inproc server32. I have no vbscript in that key.

 

Ths sfc scannow did not make me aware of a missing key, and did not ask me to insert an operating disk for the missing file.

What should I do?

I have Vista Sp2 On my PC but only have a recovery CD for Vista SP1

I would appreciate any input from someone as this has been quite difficult for me to get this far. Thank you .

Hi Crisanna,

 

This happens if the scripting runtime file vbscript.dll is not registered correctly in the system. To resolve the problem, use these methods and check the issue status.

 

Method 1:

Keep the computer in clean boot and check the issue status.

How to perform a clean boot to troubleshoot a problem in Windows Vista, Windows 7, or Windows 8.

http://support.microsoft.com/kb/929135

Note: Please go through the section: How to reset the computer to start as usual after troubleshooting with clean boot of the Kb article to boot the computer in normal startup after fixing the issue.

 

Method 2:

Run the following command and check the issue status.

a. Click Start, Run and type:

regsvr32 %systemroot%\system32\vbscript.dll

b. If the registration was successful, you should now see the following message:

DllRegisterServer in vbscript.dll succeeded.

 

Method 3:

Perform system restore to a system restore point where everything was fine.

System Restore.

http://windows.microsoft.com/en-US/windows7/products/features/system-restore

System restore: When you perform System Restore to restore the computer to previous state, programs and updates you installed are removed.

Thank you very much for your response, Ganesh.

Nothing worked. I appreciate any helpful input.

I did "System Restore" first thing prior to everything I mentioned in the post.

That did not work.

I did the "clean boot" which did not work.

I have dried to register this dll as I have stated in my post and I did not succeed. See error code below.

I entered it again as you requested:

regsvr32 %systemroot%\system32\vbscript.dll

I get the following in a separate pop- up window again:

As I understand this error code means “access denied“.

I had performed this registration action as the "Standard user" with administrator privileges and clicked" Administrator" from the command prompt.

I was denied access with error code 0x800040005 although I am a person with administrator rights...

I explained this previously in my post...

That is why I downloaded SubInAcl and created a" note pad" as reset.cmd and ran it. According to Microsoft, this should take care of this error code 0x80004005, but apparently it did not. I still have the problem.

I am not that firm on the on the" User Control Issue" in my Vista.

But this is what I tried next:

I logged onto my" administrator account" not the “Standard user” with "administrator privileges". I ran that CMD. This cmd says also administrator cmd. However, here I had to change the cmd content from C:\User\Administrator to C:\ windows\system32. I then tried to register regsvr32 vbscript.dll.

I got the same error code 0x80004004 with same message as above.

I also stated in my post that I have a problem with with Windows power shell and that a module cannot be loaded because the execution of scripts is disabled on the system. Does this have anything to do with it? Or is this a separate issue.

Since I am still getting this error 0x80004005 wherever I want to register the vbscript.dll it seems that this maybe be a problem with privilege.? Is it? I am even denied access to CBS.logs.

　

I have run sfc scannow as I stated before and it says I have corrupted files and that they have been repaired and it will take affect on next reboot. However, this corrupted file never is being repaired.

I then wanted to find out what it says under sfcdetails.txt and entered into the command prompt:

findstr /c:"[SR]" %windir%\Logs\CBS\CBS.log >"%userprofile%\Desktop\sfcdetails.txt

Nothing comes up. I then go to the actual place of CBS.logs on my computer and when clicked to open it, a window pops up "access is denied"

Do I have something wrong in my registry that prevents this registration or what causes the "access denied"?

I managed somehow yesterday maybe trough sfc\scannow to get this key:

"HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\CLSID\{B54F3741-5B07-11cf-A4B0-00AA004A55E8}\InprocServer32

into my registry ( it was absolutely missing).

So it is there now,

But l I still have several of the same keys in addition to the InprocServer32 only with a different ending. Are they interfering?

HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\CLSID\{B54F3741-5B07-11cf-A4B0-00AA004A55E8

.\Implemented category (there are two sets of numbers long keys under that)

HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\CLSID\{B54F3741-5B07-11cf-A4B0-00AA004A55E8}

 .\ OLEscript

HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\CLSID\{B54F3741-5B07-11cf-A4B0-00AA004A55E8}

 ...\ProgID

The same key with these endings do they interfere?

My “Microsoft Console” does not have a “snap -in” for “Local Groups and Users“. Reason given is: “I have Vista Home Basic. I do not know how to view the privilege issue further.

Hi Crisanna,

 

I would suggest you to create a new user account and check the issue status in the new user account.

Create a user account.

I did create a new user account with administrator privileges.

 

I then ran from command prompt as adminsitrator : regsvr32 vbscript.dll

 

Again this

What happens when I want to Click On "Event Log online Help" in the new user account?

The same as under any other account.

I get this:

Can't find script engine "VBScript" for script. C:\Users\Cris\AppData\Temp\tmp8FC1.vbs

(Please see the beginning of my post.)

I have also run sfc scannow as I explained in my first post I ran it under every user account.

It finds corrupted files every time.

It tells me, it fixed the problem, and the fix will go into effect the next reboot.

I think it never does. I have ran sfc scan multiple times, I get the same message about corrupted files every time.

After I wrote my last post I re-checked my registry entries.

Once again

HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\CLSID\{B54F3741-5B07-11cf-A4B0-00AA004A55E8}\InprocServer32

had disappeared out of my registry.

 

I did not know how to get this back into the registry.

 I decided then to download IE9 which I had not installed but I figured it might give me the registry entry. It did.

Now this registry entry HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\CLSID\{B54F3741-5B07-11cf-A4B0-00AA004A55E8}\InprocServer32 has to be altered. It is different then before, values are not set.

.

I have no clue how to set the value. I have never altered a registry key and even after reading explanation from Microsoft how to alter registry keys or set values I do not understand.

When I right click (value not set) many options come up what do I choose? What do I do then?

 

. What exactly do I click on, what exactly do I enter where?

 I assume C:\windows\system 32\vbscript.dll

Please can someone help me to change this registry key?

Maybe this will bring me a step further.

 

Although previously I did have this key in my registry with the correct values for vbscript.(HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\CLSID\{B54F3741-5B07-11cf-A4B0-00AA004A55E8}\InprocServer32),

I have no idea, why I could not register vbscript then, or why it would disappear following.

 

Is there anything wrong with the additional subkeys?

 

I have a subkey PROGID under HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\CLSID\{B54F3741-5B07-11cf-A4B0-00AA004A55E8 which has the entry VBscript .

 

These are the entries in my registry:

HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\CLSID\{B54F3741-5B07-11cf-A4B0-00AA004A55E8}

This registry key has 4 subkeys and subkey 1 has two sub-subkeys.

Implemented categories:

has following subkeys

HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\CLSID\{B54F3741-5B07-11cf-A4B0-00AA004A55E8}\Implemented Categories\{F0B7A1A1-9847-11CF-8F20-00805F2CD064}

HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\CLSID\{B54F3741-5B07-11cf-A4B0-00AA004A55E8}\Implemented Categories\{F0B7A1A2-9847-11CF-8F20-00805F2CD064}

HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\CLSID\{B54F3741-5B07-11cf-A4B0-00AA004A55E8}\InprocServer32

THis is set as follows:    Default REG_SZ           ( value not set)

This I want to alter!!

Subkey 3

HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\CLSID\{B54F3741-5B07-11cf-A4B0-00AA004A55E8}\OLEScript

Subkey 4

HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\CLSID\{B54F3741-5B07-11cf-A4B0-00AA004A55E8}\ProgID

Value Default REG_SZ Data VBscript ( What is this?)

 

Some other strange thing:

 

My "Microsoft console" does not have the snap-in for "Locals users and groups."

My computer tells, me this is because I have "Vista basic".

How could I then ever see how permissions are given?

I have never set any permissions myself ,for one I do not understand the concept and b) I cannot access " Local Users" My Computer is called " Cris-PC" but some times I get a message referring to Cris-PC$ ( with Dollar sign) and I cannot figure out what that is, because I cannot access where permissions are given.

Any further help is appreciated. I really thank everyone for helping me.
