JScript Engine is broken on my machine

This script started failing on my Dopus recently - I have 12.10.01 beta

Error: SCRIPT (PARSE)

No issues with it here. Has the script been modified at all from the version posted above?

Do any other JScript scripts work for you in Opus?

Yes
GoTo Relative ver 1.1

Please post a screenshot of the error message / log / window in case there are any extra details that might reveal what's going on.

GoToRelative.vbs is a VBScript not JScript.

JScript is broken on your system. That will affect other things, not just Opus. If you've used a "registry cleaner" it may be the cause.

Try this from an administrator command prompt:

regsvr32 %systemroot%\system32\jscript.dll

Thanks Leo, that solved it. The script loaded successfully

I downloaded a file and it installed the Avast anti-virus instead (or along with it)
I did some additional reading online, I was told this modified the jscript.dll and screwed it up during the uninstall
