Windows Script 5.6 by Trance23 on 11-28-2006 at 08:03 PM

Greetings all. I 'm trying to install itunes version 7.0, but it gives me an error message stating that vbscript is not installed or turned off. I tried to install windows script 5.6 but it also gave me a new error saying there was an error in registering the OCX:\windows.vbscript.dll. I tried to manually register it , as i have read in other forums but it also gave me an error message saying that vbscript.dll could not be located or found. I dont know any other solutions. HELP!

Which Windows version are you using? I seem to recall that Windows XP SP2 has Scripting 5.6 already installed - I have vbscript.dll in my Windows folder and I cannot recall installing it.

It's also possible that if you're not using an Administrator account, then you simply don't have permission to play with files in the Windows folder, hence vbscript.dll can't be registered.

You may wish to manually try running:
regsvr32 /i c:\windows\vbscript.dll
from the run prompt.

Also, my vbscript.dll is inside \windows\system32, which makes me think you're using Windows 98/ME. I don't know if WSH 5.6 is supported on these systems or not.

using windows xp home edition. Im on my administrator account and i tried to run regsvr32 /i c:\windows\vbscript.dll  and it gave me an error message saying  that specific module could not be found. Thank you for your replies. Although i do see it in win32 folder i dont understand why it couldnt be found.

Sorry, I didn't mean run regsvr32 as Admin, I meant trying to install the package from the file you downloaded. :)
