MSMQ snap-in missing in MMC console

Well, took a little while to figure out what was going on here. Installed MSMQ, but then ended up not being able to manage the queues through the MMC (Microsoft Console). The Message Queuing node was missing from the Services and Applications node.

The solution? Just register mqsnap.dll in the system32 folder. So run the following command to register the file:

regsvr32 C:\windows\system32\mqsnap.dll

And there it was again! Didn't find anything about missing snap-in groups on the internet, so i hope this post will help people who come across the same annoying problem.

Cheers!

  • Yes, this is a pretty rare problem; only a few incidents over the years where the snap-in wasn't working and a simple re-registering of MQSNAPDLL was required. Thanks for sharing.
