The server is not listed in the registry keys. Is there any way to add it?

And if you disregard it, what happens?

This question is very vague. Can you please state what exactly the error
massage reads (as best you can). And what exactly is happening/are you
doing - when you get these messages. Please re-post with your answers.

Sorry it's so vague, this is at the limit of my expertise.
I am running a web-based game program. It used to run fine, but I think a
registry key got deleted. Now when I run the program, nothing happens
however I get this error in the event viewer:

Event ID 10010
Source DCOM
User NT AUTHORITY/NETWORK SERVICE
The server {1F87137D-0E7C-44D5-8C73-4EFFB68962F2} did not register with DCOM
within the required timeout.

Reinstall the game.

Is the DCOM Process Launcher Service even running? If it's not running then
that might be the place to start.

If it is running, is the game running under different credentials than the
current user or the credentials that DCOM is using?

I've had the same issue for a very long time. Searching for an answer
did exactly nothing. There was no place I didn't look.

I figured out the problem (at least for me). I added Network Service to
the Administrators group and everything started working again. This is
bad security wise, though. There is a permission some where
Administrators have that my Network Service doesn't.. Wish I knew what
it was.
