To fix Windows Script Host errors:

1. Restart your PC.
2. Run a full virus scan.
3. Check for corrupted system files: open Command Prompt as admin and run sfc /scannow.
4. Re-register the Windows Script Host: run regsvr32 jscript.dll and regsvr32 wscript.dll in Command Prompt.
5. Disable any recently installed suspicious programs.

Try this quick stuff:

1. Restart your PC — sometimes it’s just a glitch.
2. Run a full virus scan — malware can cause this error.
3. Press Win + R, type msconfig, go to Startup tab, and disable any weird-looking entries.
4. You can also try resetting Windows Script Host settings using the Registry, but only if you're comfy doing that.

If nothing works, a system restore to an earlier point usually does the trick.
