How do I replace/repair riched20.dll in Windows Vista?

Asked by elron in Windows Vista, Microsoft Windows Operating Systems

Tags: Microsoft, riched20.dll, vista

Recently, I've been receiving all kinds of error messages regarding the riched20.dll file in the c:\windows\system32 directory.  I want to repair/replace it, but Windows Vista will not let me rename or move the file even with administrator permission.

One recent error when trying to run a nVidia Forceware driver upgrade I get is "The procedure entry point RichEdit10ANSIWndProc could not be located in the dynamic link library RICHED20.dll."

I also try to unregister the .dll but it won't let me do that telling me it can't find the entry point.  I've Googled this to death and can't find a fix.  Please help!!
