I’m getting error messages when I start up. The first one says Cannot find ‘qtcore4.dll’. Please re-install this application. The second says This application has failed to start because qt-mt333.dll was not found. Re-installing the application may fix this problem.

I think this is as a result of my trying to delete a few plug-in demos such as Fluid Mask and Dfine, but I can’t identify those dll’s and reinstalling Photoshop did not help. Does anyone know what application these relate to or how to get rid of the error messages?

This happens if I start up CS3 directly or if I start it from Lightroom.

I believe you are correct. You need to uninstall these plugins correctly. The dll appears to be used to drive the gui of some plugin.

I don’t think so. I stopped the error message by removing some plug-ins from Digital Film Tools.
