Sometimes update.js errors and others system errors JS may be related to issues in the Windows registry. Several programs can use the update.js file, but when those programs are removed or modified, sometimes "orphaned" (incorrect) JS registry entries are left behind.

Basically, this means that while the actual path of the file may have changed, its incorrect former location is still recorded in the Windows Registry. When Windows tries to look up these incorrect file references (file locations on your PC), update.js errors can occur. Additionally, malware infection may have corrupted the registry entries associated with Star Office 8. Thus, these corrupted JS registry entries need to be fixed to fix the problem at the root.

Using Registry Editor incorrectly can cause serious problems and require Windows reinstallation. We do not guarantee that problems resulting from incorrect use of Registry Editor can be corrected.
