HELP needed

Rick-a-Roo · 04-29-2023, 03:12 PM

I am a computer dumbass...and now have a problem that I can find no good
answer to. That is, no good answer that I can understand.

An 'advisory panel' has cropped up and does not go away after restarting the
PC, although it is movable to one side.

It is headed: McUICnt.exe - Entry Point Not Found

The message says: The procedure entry point BCryptHash could not be located in the dynamic link library bcrypt.dll.

Google searches have not produced any explanation in plain non-tech language
that I can comprehend; so I'm hopeful that one of our more tech-savvy
member can point me in the right direction.

I know how to fix that.

Put your laptop in the road and run it over a few time, then head to best buy or staples etc and buy a new laptop

Uninstall McAfee, turn computer off and back on, reinstall McAfee turn computer off and on again and see.

Won't work...this is an older PC that would probably do untold damage to the
underpinnings of the Cruiser, especially as I lost the skid plate to someone
else's runaway wheel some years ago.

You could do a Windows restore to a day or two before you got the message.

This is for Windows 10 but you could search for restore instructions for your version of windows.

What kind of antivirus do you have Rick? Maybe run it and see. If you have Windows Defender run it.
