rambolito Posted July 1, 2004 Share Posted July 1, 2004 The message: "Error creating process..." appears when I try to update Windows or Messenger. I doesn't matter if I first download the executable or just click 'Open' on download. I've searched all over Microsofts' website but can't find anything on this problem. Does anyone have a clue how to solve this? (I already reinstalled WinXP SP1). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rambolito Posted July 1, 2004 Author Share Posted July 1, 2004 Here's a file with a snapshot of the message-box while trying to update Messenger. Next I'll place a snapshot when I tried Windows Update. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rambolito Posted July 1, 2004 Author Share Posted July 1, 2004 Problem solved! Though not by installing the latest runtime version of VB6...While waiting for your reply I was just trying some things. One of them: Plain deleting. I made a backup of and deleted my directories "\Config.Msi" and "\Documents and Settings\M ~1~HOP", did a reboot and retried the update procedure. That was it! Should have tried that before, wasted two days on the net looking for an answer. I will get the lateste runtime version of VB6. Just to be sure Thanks for helping me out!
