Help,

I am trying to replace my cdosys.dll file in my C:/Windows/system32 directory but I am unable to. Is there any way to replace it. I tried changing the permissions on the folders but the old cdosys.dll can't be deleted or overwritten.

Thanks to all
 
I'm assuming that you are running Win XP (or 2003), this is an intentional security measure. While there are a number of ways around this, one is to copy it to C:\WINDOWS\system32\dllcache\ first, and then to C:\WINDOWS\system32\. Note: You will have to logged in as at least a local System Administrator.
