    Hi,

    Thank you for posting in Microsoft Community Forums.

    As per the description, you are unable to install a screensaver in Windows 7. I'll surely help you if you could let us know the following details:

    1. Do you get any error message/code?
    2. How are you trying to install the screensaver?
    3. How was the screen saver prepared? Are you downloading it online?

    A missing or corrupt .dll file can be caused by any of the below possibilities.

    1. Another program was uninstalled that removed a .dll file that was required by another program or the operating system.
    2. A program was installed that overwrote the .dll file with either an older version or a version that is incompatible with other programs causing .dll errors.
    3. A bad installation of a program corrupted one or more files causing the .dll errors.
    4. Another user or program maliciously or mistakenly deleted the .dll file or an associated file.
    5. A hardware issue exists with the computer, such as a bad hard drive, causing the data on the drive to become corrupt, casing the .dll errors.

    Please follow the methods to fix the issue:

    Method 1: I would suggest to re-register the .dll:

    1. Click on Start, then Run.
    2. Now all you have to do to register a DLL file is to type in the regsvr32 command, followed by the path of the DLL file. : regsvr32 C:\Windows\System32\ltkrn10n.dill
    3. Hit OK.

    Method 2: Run SFC scan in the computer

    Use the System File Checker tool to troubleshoot missing or corrupted system files on Windows Vista or on Windows

    Method 3: Let’s run a virus scan:

    Note: Any data files that are infected may only be cleaned by deleting the file entirely, which means there is a potential for data loss.
