Ran CCleaner; Now getting DAO.msi error

[BBCMember]

I ran CCleaner on a system, and now it's saying it can't load the DAO app because it's missing DAO.msi.

I did a search and it seems to be an ATI issue.

I found three possible solutions:

------------------------

Option 1

1. Look for DAO.exe (you may have to change the setting in Windows Explorer so you can view hidden and system files)
2. Do a search for "DAO" on your C drive
3. It might be in a folder like C:ATI\SUPPORT\mmc-9-1-0-0-dao-mdac
4. Go to START>CONTROL PANEL>ADD/REMOVE PROGRAMS>Uninstall DAO
5. Then go back to the folder where you found DAO.exe and run it

OR


Option 2

1. Download and install MDAC 2.8

OR


Option 3

Go to Command Prompt and unregister DAO by typing (including the quotes):
regsvr32 /u "c:\program files\common files\microsoft shared\dao\dao360.dll"
Type OK

then...

Register DAO again by going to the Command Prompt and typing (including the quotes):
regsvr32 "c:\program files\common files\microsoft shared\dao\dao360.dll"
Type OK

It might ask you to do it again, but people have said that it is not necessary

-----------------------------------------

Which solution would you suggest?

How can this be avoided when running CCleaner again, and the DAO.msi file is in the temp folder?

You're link in option 2 is broken.

Seems to me like 1 and 3 are basically the same option.

If I were you I would try Option 3.
