WordWeb 5.0.0

Has anyone had problems with WordWeb 5.0.0 ?

I have just tried to install it on two computers and get this error message:

Error

A required .DLL file WWEB32.DLL was not found...

OK

Have downloaded it twice same results...

Thank!

When you say downloaded it, do you mean the .dll or the app? If you have the .dll on your PC (you can use the Search in the Start menu and find it, if you don't know where it went) Then put it in the main Windows folder. I have WordWeb 4.5 and that is where WWEB32.DLL is on my machine.
If that doesn't solve your problem, then uninstall and re-install the app and let us know how it went.

 

Have now tried it on three computers...

Same problem...

Slightly different error messages:

Tried Windows 98SE, Windows 2000 Pro, and Windows XP Home.

Have downloaded from the first three links on the download page here at MajorGeeks.com.

1. Author's Site
2. MajorGeeks TX - |USA|
3. MajorGeeks FL - |USA|

Have you had word web on your computer before ?

File Listing WordWeb:

File_ID.diz
msvcr71.dll
ReadMe.txt
settings.ini
tesseract.dll
uninst.exe
WCaptDll.dll
WCapture.dll
WCustom.dll
wordweb.chm
WUC.dll
WUCNT.dll
wweb.ww3
wweb32.exe
wweb32new.dll
wwnotray.exe

Note: there is no WWEB32.DLL but there is a "wweb32new.dll".

I think I will try to find an older version for testing.

Not found at Oldversion.com or Oldapps.com

I will continue my Search...

I got kicked out and could not edit my previous post, Sorry!

 

Have you un-installed before re-installing? Have you searched your PC for the wweb32.dll?
Here is a link to WordWeb 4.5.
Remember to check it for malware before installing AND before using.

If DLing an older version doesn't solve your prob, here is the link to report errors to WordWeb. Maybe they will have the solution.

Thanks that was version 4 but it installed and worked.

I uninstalled it and reinstalled version 5.

I located the problem, leave advanced options alone, it somehow thinks I want to install to a removable drive but installs to the program files folder anyway.

If allready messed, rename wweb32new.dll to wweb32.dll and it will work.

Take the default options during install and everything will be rosey!!

I had thought of that but didn't want to mess things up more if it didn't work. rolleyes Glad you got it up and running.
