I am trying to install a VB 6 application on a computer and I get the error "C:\WINNT\System32\msvcrt.dll destination file in-use". It's apparently being used by another process. Then I am prompted to retry, ignore or abort. Can someone please tell me how to resolve this error? Thanks. I also notice that there are several iterations of this dll on the computer, associated with various installations of other software. From what I understand there should be only one of these files and it should be in the System32 directory.
 
This DLL is used by the operating system itself. You should not have to distribute it, unless your target market is using Windows 95.
