Buenchico must know.

Anyone know, bump.

You could try zamzar.com (but do read their tems before doing the conversion just in case) or if you have VLC installed, use that instead. Instructions for doing it in VLC can be found at https://www.vlchelp.com/convert-video-format/

The software which usually comes out top in reviews from independent websites (rather than from those which are actually tring to promote their own products by stealth) is also the same software which generally comes out top in reviews in magazines such as PC Pro, Computer Active, Web User, etc:

Buen, saw your recommendation last night of Vivaldi, downloaded it, watched it in the little rectangle in the bottom left corner of my screen, it finished after about 3 or 4 minutes and then.....nada. No further instructions or how to actually install it. What did I miss?

(Sorry to hijack thread, SK)

GG:
Look in your 'Downloads' folder . (Click the Windows Explorer button next to your Start button, then click on 'Downloads'). You should see a file called Vivaldi.2.5.1525.48.x64.exe. Double-click on it to run it.

Thanks, Chris. Just looked again at the main Vivaldi site and the download for Vista (yes, am still using it!) is only 1.0, and no longer supported, so prob no better than the Chrome I'm on now?

[Buenchico]

It might still be worth giving it a try, GG.

I've also got Avant on my desktop, which is fully compatible with Vista:

If that file is missing or corrupted it's possible that it's been damaged by malware or a virus. So start by carrying out a full scan with your anti-virus program. Then run an anti-malware scan. For that you can use the free version of Malwarebytes Anti-Malware if you've already got it on your computer. (I don't currently recommend downloading a fresh installation of that software though, as it now lands you with a free trial of the full product, which seems to slow some computers to a crawl). Otherwise use AdwCleaner, which is also from Malwarebytes https://www.malwarebytes.com/adwcleaner/ or Microsoft's own scanning software:
https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/security/threat-protection/intelligence/safety-scanner-download

That should deal with any underlying problem but it won't replace the missing file. There are loads of websites which you download that file from but many of them will dump something nasty onto your computer at the same time, so you should only get it from the original software developer's site:
https://www.sqlite.org/download.html
(Scroll down to 'Precompiled Binaries for Windows'. Use the first download if you've got a 32-bit system or the second one for a 64-bit system. If you're not sure whether your system is 32-bit or 64-bit, click on 'Start', right-click on 'Computer' and select 'Properties').

That's a zip file, so you might need to extract it first in order to get to the installation file, which will put the missing dll back on your computer.

Alternatively, try one of the free online file conversion services:
