MSIMG32.DLL is either not designed to run on windows or it contains an error

Hi shaycourtney1,

1.    When do you receive the error message?

2.    Have you made any recent changes on the computer?

Msimg32.dllis a system file in Windows vista.

If you are getting the message when opening any program or during startupI would suggest that you run SFC scan on the computer which would scan for corrupt system files on the computer and replace them.

The scan may take some time, so be patient. Windows will repair any corrupted or missing files that it finds. If information from the installation CD is needed to repair the problem, you may be prompted to insert your Windows Vista installation disk.

For more information refer the below link.

That 32-bit DLL will not run on a 64-bit system unless it is in the Programs-X86 folder. Move it there.  Make sure you remove it from its current folder, so the program will look for it elsewhere.

I had to do a system restore for 4 days prior to when i removed the old flash player, that fixed the issue and restored my old flash player, i just wont update again

I'm having the same problem installing Adobe Flash. I tried removing the old Flash, restarting the computer, and retrying the install, no luck. Tried finding the .dll file elsewhere, but I thought better of that idea based on this: http://pcsupport.about.com/od/findtheproblem/qt/dll-download.htm. Maybe some of that sites suggestions will help you, but I'm still having problems.

i have the same problem when install adobe flash, run SFC, find nothing, still cannot install adobe flash, anyone can help?
