Hello,

I've downloaded the setup of Netbeans-6 IDE JavaSE for Windows from Sun's website. When I run the setup, it says, "Error starting program: A required .DLL file, USERENV.DLL, was not found". Has anyone faced this problem before? Please guide me.

I have only netbeans 5.5.1, installing latest release from them is usually risky.

Google the DLL name and you'll find a link to download it. It appears to be a Microsoft library for managing user profiles or something.

Why?

I've done that. Where do I place that file?

Either in Windows\System32 or you could try putting it in the same folder as the setup file.

I placed it in C:\Windows\System32. It says, 'The file C:\Windows\System32\USERENV.DLL is corrupt. Reinstall the file, and try again.' When I press OK, another dialog box appears that says, 'Windows cannot run this program because it is in an invalid format.' I tried reinstalling, but that doesn't work. When I placed it in the same folder as the setup file, the same error messages are displayed.

You know that "Java" (The jave JRE) which you use to run programs etc... is not the same as the Java developer kit (JDK), right?
