Error 2738 - W2K8 R2 x64

[rafaelsantiago]

Hello friends,

I was using the Avast Pro 4.8 (Business Protection), and i'm trying to migrate to the new version (Avast Business Protection 6). I removed: Avast Manager & Avast Management Tools from my Control Panel.

I've received my new license file. And i'm trying to install the new BP.
I ran the setup wizard "setup_console_bp.exe", and check that i have all the prerequisites mentioned in the Wizard. Ok, everything's right.

Continuing the instalation, the wizard show a error "Error 2738 - Could not access VBScript run time for custom action.". And it ends here. I just cant install it!

I need to install it very urgent, cuz i removed my Avast Console 4. And now i just can't manage my Avast Clients.

I search for some help in Google, but everything that is mentioned in every topic is:

If you are using 64-bit version of Windows:

Run Command Prompt as administrator:
Start Menu -> All Programs -> Accessories
Right click on Command Prompt and select Run as administrator
Type the following command in the prompt: reg delete "HKCU\SOFTWARE\Classes\Wow6432Node\CLSID\{B54F3741-5B07-11CF-A4B0-00AA004A55E8}" /f, then hit Enter.
Next, you must also type the following command: c:\windows\syswow64\regsvr32 vbscript.dll, then hit Enter.

This doesn't work to me. I'm using a Windows Server 2008 R2, 64 bit version.

What can i do about this?
Thank you so much!

Try also this

    Go to the Start Menu and click on Run.
    Type CMD on Run Search Bar to start Command prompt.
    Type cd %windir%\system32 and press Enter.
    Type regsvr32 vbscript.dll and press Enter.
    Type regsvr32 jscript.dll and press Enter.

or try with this

in particolar try to
Run the command that unregisters the DLL:
        Type regsvr32 /u vbscript.dll into the Command Prompt and press ENTER.
and register again

and if the problem is still

    Go to the Start Menu and click on Run.
    SFC /SCANNOW

Friend,

Unfortunately it doesn't work to me. What can i do about it?
This is a problem with my vbscript.dll?

This is a problem with my vbscript.dll?

Yes I think,
Had you try to fix also the key under HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE?

[rafaelsantiago]

I found the entry key  \HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Classes\CLSID\HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Classes\CLSID\{B54F3743-5B07-11cf-A4B0-00AA004A55E8}

How can i fix my key under the HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE?

Thanks a lot.

@EDIT:

I tried to delete the entry key inside HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE, but i got a error: "Error to exclude the key".

I just can't delete, edit, or create a new registry in this key.

Check also the 32bit key:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Classes\Wow6432Node\CLSID\{B54F3741-5B07-11cf-A4B0-00AA004A55E8}

To make it clear: the keys
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Classes\CLSID\{B54F3741-5B07-11cf-A4B0-00AA004A55E8}
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Classes\Wow6432Node\CLSID\{B54F3741-5B07-11cf-A4B0-00AA004A55E8}
MUST exist. They should contain InprocServer32 subkey with default value C:\Windows\system32\vbscript.dll (or C:\Windows\SysWOW64\vbscript.dll)

while corresponding keys in HKEY_CURRENT_USER MUST NOT exist.

ok I solved my problem with this error.

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Classes\Wow6432Node\CLSID\{B54F3741-5B07-11cf-A4B0-00AA004A55E8}
the default value in InprocServer32 was
C:\Program Files\Alwil Software\Avast4\AvAScr.dll

Had to change it to C:\Windows\SysWOW64\vbscript.dll

Also had to change permission to give full control to administrator.
