JScript Engine Not Registered - Installation Problem (6:80040154)

Question

Hi All,

I get the following error when I am running a software called CaseWare on my computer:

JScript Engine Not Registered - Installation Problem (6:80040154)

This started a few weeks ago, I think it was caused by windows updates.

I am running a Windows 7 SP1.

I tried to remove the windows updates but the problem persists, any help would be much appreciated.

hi Xylee,

Thanks for the reply.

The issue is only happening on 1 application(CaseWare Working Papers).

The software was working fine, I never had use or install a JScript Engine.

Yes I did reinstall the updates(KB3075226 and KB3020388).

I tried the following to fix the problem but no luck:

Uninstall and reinstall the software.

Download and install Java runtime environment.

run sfc /scannow command and no corrupt files found.

Hi Andile,

This issue may have occurred due to software conflict. For us to isolate the issue, kindly answer the following questions:

• Is this issue also happening on other applications?
• Have you been using the JScript Engine previously?
• Have you tried to reinstall the recent update and see if there are any changes?

Kindly get back to us for further assistance.
