leoliver Posted January 17, 2007 Share Posted January 17, 2007 Hi Everybody, Last Saturday I downloaded/installed Microsoft .NET Framework 2.0 , because the "nLite" autostreamer program required net 2.0 to run correctly. Everything went good, "nLite" worked and I had no computer problems. However, when I run Norton Windoctor, or norton one button check up I recieve program error messages such as "net framework\v 2.0.5o727\vbc.exe cannot access a necessary file "Msvcr80.dll". There are also 9 other messages saying other net 2.0 .exe files cannot access the Msvcr80.dll file. When I attempt to have norton repair these problems, norton fails to fix them. I went to a microsoft web page about net 2.0 (kbtshoot kbhowtomaster KB908077) and I used 2 of the listed repair techniques, which went without a problem, but my Norton utlities are still displaying the same error messages. But I'm having no computer problems , other than the Norton error messages. So my question is : Do I have a serious problem with net 2.0 , and if so what can I do about it? Or does the msvcr80.dll file even belong in the net framework 2.0 folder?I'm asking this question because I know next to nothing about the net framework. Thanks!

LLXX Posted January 17, 2007 Share Posted January 17, 2007 msvcr80.dll goes in the system directory (WINDOWS\SYSTEM32 on a default XP install)Stop using Norton. It's notoriously bad software. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cluberti Posted January 17, 2007 Share Posted January 17, 2007 The .net framework is a wholly contained runtime environment, found in the \Windows\.NET Framework\<version>\ folder once installed. If you've got an application that is complaining about Msvcr80.dll, which is part of the Microsoft Visual C runtime library 8.0 (hence the beginning of the file name "msvcr"), the application vendor should have provided the redistributable with their installer package. You may have to reinstall the application to make it work, or, you may be able to simply copy the file to the \Windows\system32 folder and get lucky (if it's not already there).I do second the vote against using Norton-branded products as well, but that's not of much help to you at the moment .

Jeremy Posted January 17, 2007 Share Posted January 17, 2007 Use Dial-A-Fix and unreg-reregister the Runtimes. Then use the SymNRT 2007 tool to cleanse your system of Norton. Use Avast it is freeware and much better. If you're willing to pay money, get Kaspersky or NOD32. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
