Unable to start RPC Service

22 May 2007 @ 8:56 AM Email • Permalink

If you get Could not Start the Remote Procedure Call (RPC) Service. Error 2: cannot find the file specified, it’s probably because you are missing svchost.exe from the C:\windows\system32 directory. Running sfc /scannow or copying the file from a working machine should do the trick.
