Title: Error Message after installation of Avast!4
Post by: Ger on March 18, 2003, 10:04:56 PM
After installation of Avast!4 Home Edition on my PC with Win Me, I get the error message: Application cannot load skin. Function "usiGetSkin" failed.

Can anyone help me with this problem or faced the same?

Thanks.

Tried advise but it gives no solution. If this is about registry entries, can I enter these manually?

Thanks

Is actskin4.ocx present in the \windows\system directory?

I have teh same problem (I have tried the command C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM\REGSVR32.EXE ACTSKIN4.OCX
and the file actskin4.ocx is in the windows/system directory)
so I am also keen to hear of any solutions

I am not sure if it is connected, but when I try to scan a file/folder (right click "scan file.exe") I get the error message
During open ATL dialog Error Number: 340.

I'd be interested in any thoughts.

Thanks
