Answer 1

Tried to unregister/register the ntdll.dll file but I get the following message:

The module "ntdll.dll" was laoded but the entry-point DLLUnregisterServer was not found.

Answer 2

Hi,

The ntdll.dll file is a file created by Microsoft that has a description of "Layer DLL" and is the file that contains kernel functions. This file is located in the c:\windows\system32.

Please follow the methods to fix the issue with the corrupted files in the computer and find the cause of the issue.

Method 1: 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 7:

Method 2: 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\ ntdll.dll

Do let us know if you have any other queries pertaining to Windows in the future. We will be happy to help. We, at Microsoft strive towards excellence and provide our customers with the best support.

Answer 3

There appears to be an extra space in the command; try regsvr32 C:\Windows\System32\ntdll.dll (without the space before ntdll.dll)

Answer 4

I am having a similar issue with an Adobe product. I ran the SFC scanner and got the following message: "Windows Resource Protection did not find any integrity violations."

---

Then I tried to re-register the .dll but I receive the following message:

"The module "C:\Windows\System32" failed to load. Make sure the binary is stored at the specified path or debug it to check for problems with the binary or dependent .DLL files. The specified module could not be found." 

The program crashes when I right-click and try running it from the right click menu. Otherwise, the program seems to be running as usual.

Answer 5

Any progress in this regards? ntdll.dll cannot be regsvrd32'd
