Hello,
I need help on this annoying problem I'm forced to deal with.
Anyway, a month ago I've downloaded a virus that practically destroyed my PC.
I Have done everything in my power to recover it, but somehow I managed to delete something I probably shouldn't have.
Now it's impossible to open Control Panel without a message popping out:
Â
::{26EE0668-A00A-4DD7-9371-BEB064C98683}
Windows cannot access the specified device, path, or file. You may not have the appropriate permissions to access the item.
Did anyone have a similar problem?

Thank you for your help.
Control Panel opening error message
Hello Erica,
Well the same thing happened with a friend of mine last week. It took me so much of googling and finally got a solution.
Basically,you get this error message when a specific folder in Explorer gets corrupted or deleted. Just follow the steps given below one by one-
Reboot your Computer in Safe mode and then Log in as Administrator, press Start and just input cmd in the search box. After that press Ctrl+Shift+Enter and then start the process and then type this command- for %a in (c: Windows System32 *.dll) do regsvr32.exe /s "%a
And then press Enter and you're done.
Hope it works.
Good luck
Thanks!!
Control Panel opening error message
Yes I do have the same problem before and below are the solutions that I did.
Solution 1:
I repaired the operating system and it worked for me for a few weeks but I already back up my files using this chance. It will be up and running again once you do this but this solution is not permanent.
Solution 2:
 I reformat my whole system and then everything works fine after that. I also scanned my back up files to see if any of the viruses that destroyed my system is still there and it does have virus left on the back up.
