SYMPTOMS

The Shell32.dll file is Linked to Missing Export

  1. Rename the Shlwapi.dll file in the Paperport or Canon Creative\Photo Deluxe folder to another name.

    For information about how to rename a file, click Start, click Help, click the Index tab, type renaming, and then double-click the Renaming Files topic.
  2. Copy the Shlwapi.dll file from the Windows\System folder to the PaperPort or Canon Creative\Photo Deluxe folder.
