.dll's [Solved]

[Matt]

I looked at the dlls the runtimes told me it installs, and looked at the dlls I have, and I could only find three in common.

comcat.dll

oleaut32.dll

stdole2.tlb

I can run eclipse just fine.

Can someone explain this to me?

I'm not sure what kind of answers you're looking for, but there just dynamic link libraries required to run eclipse.

I looked up the .dlls on google and found some answers, try looking them up.

My question is why, despite that I lack majority of the .dlls in the runtimes downloader, I can run Eclipse. The only .dlls that I found that matched the ones in the runetimes downloader are the three i mentioned above.

I ran the downloader, following the instructions provided, and the dlls don't appear in my system32 (the directory). I'm either missing something, or doing something all wrong.

If it helps I use windows 7.

By default when you don't change the directory it install in C:\windows\system 32 or 64 bits\

Be sure to select System32 if it doesn't work install them into a folder on your desktop then copy and paste it to the right place.

I suppose that some administrators rights are requiered to be installed that's why some of them are missing.

Once you pasted them run the CMD in administrator rights then type ;

REGSVR32 dllname.dll (change dllname to the name of the dll's you pasted ) then press enter each of them need to be correctly registered (some of them won't because of the file itself)

You made me realize something which makes me a moron. I run 64 bit, and found all the files. Thank you both for your help!
