So i get this error whenever i try to install anything on my computer....

Your Oleau32.dll file is out of date. Get a f****n newer version.

I search the internet for a new version and try to overwrite it in my
C:/windows/system32/ file and it says....

File with that name already exists, and is currently being used...

Much thanks for whomever can tell me how i can go about solving this problem.

Thx

ash

Just reformat

I swear that fixes everything

Worked like a charm for me; not the same error, but all sorts of weird .dll errors

Just make sure that you have ntfs support if you have that type of file system.
