Who said they are supposed to go on your PC?

First off, the DLLs are only for Wintendo. What OS you running?

Most people just put KiX32.exe and/or WKiX32.exe in the Netlogon share of the DC.

How are you trying to launch KiX?

did you give it a script to run?
Kix32.exe is an engine, but the commands are in a script file that should be executes on the command line

kix32.exe script.kix

How are you trying to execute it?

Oh, and BTW, there is no kixtart.exe file so maybe you have a virus?

Shame on you Les... there is a KiXtart.exe. It just happens to be in version 2.33 (16-bit).

No shame cuz he said, (and I quote) "I just downloaded the newest release of Kixtart" so unless he just stepped out of a time capsule...

no need to install kix32.exe (or wkix32.exe for that matter)
Just give it a script to work with as Radimus suggested
