Solution: Cdaengine0440.dll is a file designed to facilitate the delivery of content from the Internet to the PC. The reader most likely acquired the file by installing a WildTangent product (probably a game) or surfing the Web. After consulting a WildTangent support guru, we learned that the best solution is for the reader to remove any reference to the file from the Windows Registry (a database of user preferences and system settings). He can do this with a little help from the Registry Editor. (NOTE: Whenever you make changes to the Registry, proceed with caution and make sure you back up your system first. One wrong move could leave your system inoperable.)
To access the Registry Editor, the reader will need to open the Start menu, select Run, type regedit in the field, and click OK. In the Registry Editor window, the reader should go to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\MICROSOFT\WINDOWS\CURRENTVERSION\RUN and search the Run key's contents for any value that references a WildTangent file. If he finds such a value, he should right-click it, select Delete from the pop-up menu, and click Yes. He then can close the Registry Editor and reboot his system to make the change complete.
The only thing left to do, assuming the reader wants to continue using his WildTangent software, is to download and reinstall the recently deleted file. He can do so by visiting www.wildtangent.com, following the on-screen instructions, and rebooting his PC when the installation is complete.
These instructions should take care of the error message; but if they don't, the reader should access WildTangent's Support site at support.wildgames.comand request further assistance. |
