found a solution for me

I found that it needed the files ltfil13n.dll and ltdis13n.dll also with the ltkrn13n.dll. All of which I found by searching for the files on my computer. Simply copied and pasted into the WORKS folder.

Hope this helps!!!!
 
Solution to LTKRN13N.dll not found

I understand your confusion. If you or others are still having this problem the solution is as follows:


Double clk My Comp
on tools - folder options
click View Tab
select show hidden files & folders
click OK
click start \ search \ files or folders
in all or part type: WkImging.dll
select local hard disk in look in box
clk search
rename WkImging.dll to WkImging.old
Reinstall Works in add remove under change option

Should have no problem after that

Save time w/out reinstalling anything.

The file you are looking for is already on the pc...look in C:\programfiles\common files\surething share folder and COPY and paste it to your Microsoft works folder. I had 2 more missing files after that and those are found in the same folder. :grinthumb
 
Fix Worked

A trail copy of office and works are preloaded on many machines, especially HPs. They share several dll files which are removed during uninstall so if you remove the trail copy of office the word processor part of works will not function. ltkrn13n.dll is one of the shared files. It needs to reside in both the windows/system32 AND the program files/microsoft works directories. Either:

1. go to a site like www.dlldump.com and download the file into each directory or
2. search your harddrive for the file. chances are it is residing in other directories on your machine for use by other programs. copy the file into the system32 and microsoft works directoies.

Try works again. you'll probably get the same error as before but it will call out a different dll. Ltdis13n.dll is most likely. repeat procedure for that file. you may have to do this several times until you've restored all the missing files.

It's possible you could shorten the process by going to microsoft's website and downloading their word viewer. That may reinstall some of the files, I don't know. You can definitely fix the problem with the brute force process described above.

For anyone else out there having this problem ecount00's fix worked for me. I found all the files it was asking for (3 of them consecutively) on the computer itself, didn't have to download them and I used the one with the largest file size if more than one instance was found on the hard-drive. Then I put them in the two directories that were mentioned above; specifically: C:\windows\system32 and C:\Program Files\Microsoft Works.

All the best... :D
 
I started out by deleting the Microsoft Office Standard Edition 2003 program. Then I got the message about not having the LTKRN13N.dll file. So I went to the dlldump site and downloaded the file. Then I get the Oridinal 309 message. I then downloaded the ltkdis13n.dll and ltkfil13n.dll files. I am still getting the same Ordinal 309 message. I did post them both in the progam files and system32.

I don't know what to do now. Can someone help me at this point?

Thanks
 
Thanks a bunch, guys. But I don't have a disc for MS WOrks. It came already installed on my computer that I got about 4 years ago and it can be anywhere between my mom's house in Louisiana, college (New Orleans) and where I am now (Texas). So what do I do if I don't have a disc?

I also know you guys mentioned a commin files/sure thing folder. I don't have one of those. I have a Works Shared folder though.
 
I too got the missing dll message starting works after removing the trial Office 2003 suite. When I downloaded the ltkrn13n.dll (system32), I also got the ordinal message.

When I went to save the dll in my prog*\common*\surething*, I found I already had one; but it was a different file size (ver?) than I downloaded.

So, I removed the one I downloaded from all the places I put it, and copied the one I found to system32 and tried again.

Ahh! No ordinal message; but, now LTFIL13N.dll was missing.

Sure enough, it was in the SureThing Shared folder; so, I copied it to system32.

Ahh! No missing LTFIL13N.dll; but, now LTDIS13N.dll was missing.

Sure enough, it was in the SureThing Shared folder; so, I copied it to system32.

Walah success!

Works now works. ;-)

So does Word.
 
MS Works 7.0 W P missing LTKRN13N.dll

I do not have a disk for Works 7, and so did a search for the missing files. I simply copied them and put them in Windows/system32. I did this three times by the way and put them all into the system32 folder by right clicking the mouse and using copy and then paste. Worked with no other major undertakings necessary, like going out and buying the program! Thank God!
 
Thank you three years later!

Thanks to aussiebrydon's message in 12/2004, I can now use MS Works again. Check it out if you want the solution.
 
:bounce: Finally! A solution that doesn't require downloading anything or keeping Trial Version of Office 2003 on your computer at all!
Four Easy Steps!

(Caution: These steps worked on a new computer with Works/Money 2004 and MS Office 2003 Trial Version preinstalled from same disc. I had uninstalled Office and Money. Got the ltkrn13.ll missing error and Works Word Processor did not function any longer. These steps worked when I had done nothing else to fix the problem but uninstall and reinstall Works 2004 from the CD containing all the programs.)

(Thanks Derrick! :) )[/CENTER]

Step 1: Begin with deleting all Works files from your hard drive manually. My Computer-Drive C-Program Files-MS Works. Highlight MS Works Folder and press delete. Answer yes you wish to delete in all the pop up windows. Make sure all Works files are gone. ( If you've reinstalled Office Trial, follow same procedure for Office FIRST, 1-4, then go back for Works). Close My Computer Window.

Step 2: Uninstall Works through Control Panel. ( I know, I know, you've already done this..) Control Panel-Add/Remove Programs- scroll down to MS Works 7.0-click it once-click Remove. Again continue through all pop up windows. Make sure its gone. Exit out to desktop.

Step 3: Just another check to make sure Works is ALL gone. Go to Start-Run-type "misconfig" in box" and press ok. System Configuration Utility Window Opens. Top right tab- StartUp. Scroll down and look at programs included here. Is Works there, checked or unchecked? It shouldn't be. ( If it is I'd have to find out what to do - hopefully its not ). Click Cancel.

Step 4: Restart Computer. Insert Works CD. The computer will begin reinstalling Works. ( I know - you've done this before. The difference is deleting the Works Folder under Program Files first and ensuring no trace of Works is left. ) Register later. When its done click Finished.

Now go try your Works 2004 Word Processor from the Task Launcher in your Start Menu. MINE WORKED JUST FINE! Yours should too. Note: Remember the difference was just ensuring all Office and Works files were really gone before doing the reinstall. ( How could I be so clueless...)

I hope this helps ( and people like you 'nononsense' who've reinstalled the Trial version of Office 2003 should ensure its all gone, 1-3 above, before doing this with Works. )

Good Luck Guys!
Hey Irish Eyes... I found your directions to this problem and it worked like a charm. I had a presentation tonight and couldn't access my notes in my Works file. Thanks so much for posting this solution...
