    Re: Error 2738 when installing AutoCAD 2012

    Hello everyone. i know this problem and solution too ))) please fallow this steps.

    first of all you have to delete the relevant registry entries and re-register the DLL.
    Please make sure you back up the registry/system before you make any changes to the registry (how u can look at from microsft official site)
    To delete the registry, please run following commands with elevated privileges

    On Windows 7/64 bit System
    1-) reg delete "HKCU\SOFTWARE\Classes\Wow6432Node\CLSID\{B54F3741-5B07-11CF-A4B0-00AA004A55E8}" /f
    2-) reg delete "HKCU\SOFTWARE\Classes\CLSID\{B54F3741-5B07-11CF-A4B0-00AA004A55E8}" /f
    u must delete both

    optional if you have 32 bit win7
    On Windows 7 32 bit
    reg delete "HKCU\SOFTWARE\Classes\CLSID\{B54F3741-5B07-11CF-A4B0-00AA004A55E8}" /f


    To Re-register the DLL please run following commands with elevated privileges
    make copy+paste one by one
    On Windows 7 64 bit System
    c:\windows\syswow64\regsvr32 vbscript.dll
    c:\windows\system32\regsvr32 vbscript.dll

    On Windows 7 32 bit (optional for 32 bit win7)
    c:\windows\system32\regsvr32 vbscript.dll

    this step is so important. if u want to solve then you have to trust me. If you had McAfee Antivirus in the past (even if you have unistalled it might leave some trace)
    please use this tool to remove it completly.

    now intsall again. it will work, be sure )))) if you had activation problem after install then write me again. i know that slotion too...
    Best Regard

    The point is that i fixed it very stupidally before. But i don't remember what i've done and i don't have the program anymore. it doesn't seem to be a problem with the program. I remember now! If you're on windows you have to configure something like full admin rights or. Or something like, it's a windows configure, anyhow. You have to allow some special install or special full admin feature for install (control panel). And that's it. I cannot help you more because since i've changed OS for Ubuntu. I had enough of all the Microsoft Crap. Sorry for that but, it's the ****ing right answer. Best regards-

    Thanks for your help Osman! The reg delete functions for HKCU did not apply in my case, these could not be found, but the McAfee uninstall seems to have done the trick.
