    As per my information this error indicates that VBScript DLL file is not perfectly register or installed in your computer and that's why you are getting such type of problem. In this case you have to use following steps to fix this problem.
    First open your command prompt and the type following command in it and then press enter.
    Code:
    regsvr32 vbscript.dll
    After this you will not get any problem.
