Netdiag.exe Error and How to Fix It

Microsoft Windows

While trying to run the netdiag.exe program on a Windows XP or Windows 2003  Server you get this error message:

netdiag.exe – Entry Point Not Found : The procedure entry point  DnsIsDynamicRegistrationEnabled could not be located in the dynamic link library  DNSAPI.dll

or

netdiag.exe – Entry Point Not Found : The procedure entry point  DnsGetPrimaryDomainName_UTF8 could not be located in the dynamic link library  DNSAPI.dll

This is caused because some DLL have not been registered properly. This means  you might have installed the netdiag.exe from a downloaded resource tool  kit.

If using WinXP/Win2k3 one should use the Netdiag.exe supplied on the install  cd WinXP(X:\Support\Tools\Setup.exe) / Win2k3  (X:\Support\Tools\suptools.msi).

This should resolve your issues with running this program.
