Did you get any error message when registering the DLL?

I'm having this problem as well. I registerd the DLL, and there were no errors when doing that. The exact message is:

---------------------------
Windows Script Host
---------------------------
There is no script engine for file extension ".vbs".

---------------------------
OK
---------------------------

Re: Problem with host script engine

For VBScripts, run this command:

regsvr32 vbscript.dll

Re: Problem with host script engine

Try fixing the .VBS association settings. See "Step 2" here:

Error "There is no script engine for file extension" when running .vbs files - The Winhelponline Blog:

Re: Problem with host script engine

after registering the dll you have to go to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Configuration\CurrentA pplication and change "RunningApp"="True" to false and that should fix problem
