Problem Statement:
Sometimes Windows users start getting following error while executing certain programs or even when starting windows.

Can’t find script engine “VBScript” for script <script_name>.vbs

Cause:

This error occurs mainly because your VBScript Dynamic Linked Library (DLL) VBScript.dll accidentally gets unregistered due to uninstall of certain non-standard programs

Solution:

Click Start->Run->Type “regsvr32 VBScript” -> Click OK

It will display following message box as a confirmation that now VBScript Engine has been registered with your windows. This should fix all problems related to the same.

DllRegisterServer in VBScript succeded.

Alternate Solution:

If “regsvr32 VBScript” does not work then you can alternatively use any of the following.

regsvr32 vbscript.dll

or

regsvr32 %systemroot%system32vbscript.dll
