Please check if this file really exist on your system. For example Anti-virus blocked access to file or even quarantined it.

I too am getting this same error.

The file "7ZipBuilder.dll" file does exist. Any other suggestions?

Oh and by the way, this was for the install version - Shareaza_2.7.6.0_x64.exe with Windows XP.

Thanks.

Open your anti-virus quarantine and restore this file.

He just said it exists. It's not in quarantine. The dll file exists in my program folder as well and I'm too getting the error message. Like and idiot I decided to upgrade when my previous version was working fine. Now I'm getting the error. Can anyone help?

[seanboy]

Btw, I'm running windows xp 32.

So I uninstalled the Shareaza_2.7.6.0, deleted the 7zipbuilder.dll file. Then I tried to reinstall 2.7.2.0. I got the same error, only this time it was virustotal.dll. So I deleted that file and tried again to install 2.7.2.0. It installed successfully, but when I tried to run it, I got this error: "The procedure entry point GetLogicalProcessorInformation could not be located in the dynamic link library KERNEL32.dll"

Any suggestions?

[seanboy]

Btw, I searched for kernel32.dll and it's in the windows/system32 folder and in the windows/softwaredistribution folder, so I don't know it can't locate it.

Time to set up fresh win. Clean your HD.

--Code is good. And it works.

You need to install SP3 (and learn how to use Google to help yourself).

The last grumpy response notwithstanding, I have encountered the same problem. While Google is my friend, today it is not immediately helpful. I am running Windows 7 Ultimate 64 bit (fully patched). I attempted to upgrade from Shareaza_2.7.4.0_x64 to Shareaza_2.7.7.0_x64 but was presented with the message "Unable to register the DLL/OCX: RegSvr32 failed with exit code 0x3." While Abort claimed to be rolling back the changes, it left me with neither the 2.7.4 nor 2.7.7 versions working.

I tried a number of things (which I'll not list here as they proved fruitless) until I threw caution to the wind (since nothing worked anyway) and chose to ignore the error message and proceeded through about 12 other identical error messages for other DLLs. Which led to an error about MSVCR120.dll missing from my computer popping up about 6 times.

Now this last error message, at least, is an accurate error message as a search for MSVCR120.dll finds no copies anywhere on my machine. I tried downloading and installing the Visual C++ Redistributable library directly from Microsoft but alas my attempts to install that got me the (very irritating, since Ive encountered it a couple of times now) "Key not valid for use in specified state." error popup.

That, however, was the real secret because from there Google came to my rescue by suggesting that I delete Windows update KB2918614. Deleted, rebooted, tried the install again and everything worked fine.

My conclusion is that a Windows Security update has broken software installations for a number of applications (including Shareaza). I'm not really thrilled about having to delete a security update to install software, but it *did* fix the problem for me.

Thank you for solution.
