Where can I find clean copies of the corrupted dll files I am missing: fde.dll, fdedeploy.dll, gptext.dll, gpedit.dll

Question

Just want to know how I can get these dll files back into the system 32 file as my AI is telling me this is why my gp is denying my administrative access. I do know somehow policies were applied though nobody except me has access to this laptop, nor has anyone ever used it but myself.

Answer 1

You can download the following dll files from here:

https://www.dll-files.com/fde.dll.html

https://www.dll-files.com/gptext.dll.html

https://www.dll-files.com/gpedit.dll.html

I am not sure of "fdedeploy.dll" seems to be a part of McAfee.

Hello,

The safest way is to install a new system with the same edition. And then copy these files to your current system. We don't have an official link to download such a single file. And we won't suggest downloading from other places for safety.

You can also try those command in your command line and see if it will rebuild such files:

sfc /scannow

Dism /Online /Cleanup-Image /RestoreHealth

You can choose the image source from here: Repair a Windows Image | Microsoft Learn
