Re: Is individual tool reinstallation possible?

Question

Hi,
I have a Toshiba L350-15U with preinstalled Vista Home Premium + Tools/Utilities.
One of the preinstalled tools is "Ulead DVD MovieFactory for TOSHIBA 5" which *stopped working* after I accidentally deleted its file named *"umfCommon.dll"*
since my antivir program told me it had been infected and couldn't have been quarantined.
Now I know it must have been a false positive alert but the file has gone.
*1. Is it possible to reinstall this Ulead tool alone?*
*2. If yes, what should I do?*
*3. If not, can I get direct support from the Ulead / Corel Customer Support (getting a download link, copy of that .dll, etc) ?*
I know that there is the hidden recovery partition and I also have created the 2 recovery disks but I cannot find a way to do this without reinstalling everything.
I remember the old days when Toshiba notebook owners got a System Recovery DVD AND another DVD containing the tools which helped to fix such issues but it's not the case now...
Thank you for your help in advance.

Hi,
I have downloaded the zip file you specified but nothing happened.
I unzipped the file (it has created a folder named "TOSHIBA DVD PLAYER") and launched the .exe in the folder but after it extracted files to a temp directory and executed something named "tinstall.exe" I didn't see any changes except it refreshed the icons on my desktop.
I suspect it should have done something with the Toshiba DVD Player utility but it worked and works fine, the broken tool is Ulead DVD MovieFactory for Toshiba.
However, thanks for trying to help me ;-)
