Why do I get an error from the “Add Network Place Wizard” when trying to create a WebDAV connection?
If you are trying to create a WebDAV connection and you get an “Add Network Place Wizard” error message that says “The folder you entered does not appear to be valid. Please choose another.” The problem is most likely due to a conflicting Microsoft Office installation. Follow these steps to fix: • Find a file called webfldrs.msi (Normally under WINDOWSSYSTEM32webfldrs.msi – if you installed Windows XP Service Pack 1 you will find it under WINDOWSServicePackFilesi386webfldrs.msi). • Start the installation by double-clicking on webfldrs.msi. • Click on “Select reinstall mode.” • Uncheck “Repair all detected reinstall problems”. Check “Force all files to be reinstalled, regardless of checksum or version”. Check “Verify that required user registry entries are present”. Check “Verify that required machine registry entries are present”. Check “Validate shortcuts”. • Press OK and REINSTALL • Normally no reboot is required.
