(important: w2fix.exe cannot be run from a floppy disk as the program reboots the computer and a floppy disk would interfere with the boot sequence.) note: if you accidentally downloaded the program to a location other than the desktop, copy it to the desktop now double click on the w2fix file on your desktop and follow the on-screen instructions. you will be prompted to reboot your computer twice before the fix is complete. you can delete the w2fix.exe file from your computer after the fix is installed. tom's information on error codes for the winsock 2 fix: my first suggestion to a w2fix error would be to shut down all programs currently running and remove any suspicious programs (spyware etc) from the computer, then try again. here are all the non-trivial error messages the program generates (i might have missed some, but this is the majority of them.) they share the same basic format: action attempted -> error code generated. ==== unable to check for dun upgrades. there was an error while opening the registry key: hklm\software\microsoft\windows\currentversion\uninstall error code: ---- w2fix is trying to open up the uninstall registry key.. nothing should go wrong with this. the only thing i could imagine is that the key does not exist.. which it should. or the reg is corrupted. ==== unable to query information from hklm\software\microsoft\windows\currentversion\uninstall this could indicate a problem. please report error code: ---- at this point it is getting the number of keys beneath the uninstall key - again this should not be a problem unless the registry is corrupt. ==== there has been an error while enumerating keys under hklm\software\microsoft\windows\currentversion\uninstall\n" this may indicate a problem. please report error code: ---- something happened while the program was searching through the keys underneath uninstall. basically it is looking for dun upgrades that were installed by the user. if this or any of the above isnt working, add and remove programs probably wont work. again this shouldn't happen unless the reg is messed up. ==== unable to open the key: hklm\software\microsoft\windows\currentversion\runonce. error code: ---- the program is trying to get itself in the run section of the registry so it'll restart at reboot. again this should work. if it fails here, you can let the machine reboot and then try running w2fix again, it should pick up where it left off. again this isn't a good thing to happen. ==== we were unable to write data to the registry key: hklm\software\microsoft\windows\currentversion\runonce the errorcode was: ---- there is definitely something wrong here. the program was able to open up the registry key, but it couldn't write to it. not good. ==== unable to open the key: hklm\system\currentcontrolset\services unable to continue. ---- this is a showstopper. we can't open up the winsock2's parent key for whatever reason. try going there through the registry.. but again it's not a good sign. ==== there was an error deleting the winsock2 key. the error code is as follows: ---- we couldn't delete the winsock2 key. this operation should go through unless the key doesn't exist already, or something else is wrong. ===================================================== error codes: #define eperm 1 //you do not have permission to perform this action #define enoent 2 //the requested object doesn't seem to exist #define eintr 4 //the program was interrupted during a critical operation #define eio 5 //an i/o error has occured #define enxio 6 //no such address or device #define e2big 7 //argument list provided was too long #define enoexec 8 //unable to execute process because arg list was too long #define ebadf 9 //the file descriptor was invalid. #define eagain 11 //try again... resource is busy #define enomem 12 //not enough mem to complete the operation #define eacces 13 //you dont have the access rights to perform the op #define efault 14 //bad address was given to a function #define ebusy 16 //device was busy, try again #define eexist 17 //the file/object already exists #define enodev 19 //no such device exists #define enotdir 20 //not a directory #define eisdir 21 //is a directory #define einval 22 //invalid argument #define enfile 23 //too many open files system wide #define emfile 24 //too many openfiles process wide #define enotty 25 //inappropriate io operation #define efbig 27 //file too large to operate on #define enospc 28 //no space left #define espipe 29 //illegal seek on a file #define edom 33 //argument provided beyond a valid domain #define erange 34 //arguemen provided was beyond a valid range #define edeadlk 36 //dead lock 2 processes are waiting for the same resource //and will never execute. #define enosys 40 //subsystem that would process command is not present     pcsc  bu  office of information technology     pcsc      october 25, 2007 © boston university
