PAR Can't Locate MakeMaker

Anonymous Monk has asked for the wisdom of the Perl Monks concerning the following question:

I use to be able to use PAR, then after a while I tried to use PAR again this message appear. I've installing and uninstalling module lately. But even after I uninstall ExtUtils-MakeMaker and installing again the same result like below-

C:\>pp -c jel.exe jelly.pl

C:\>Can't locate ExtUtils/MakeMaker.pm in @INC (@INC
contains: CODE(0xd29acc) .) at C:\Perl2\bin\PP line 20.
BEGIN failed--compilation aborted at C:\Perl2\bin\PP line 20.

Please help, thanks

You uninstalled ExtUtils::MakeMaker?!? What an extremely silly thing to do. That module is from a suite that comes with perl, and now you've ruined it. The best thing to do might be to reinstall Perl. `C:\>Can't locate ExtUtils/MakeMaker.pm in @INC (@INC contains: CODE(0xd29acc) .)` [download] Odd. That looks like you're running perl inside a binary packed distribution, not your stock perl. For some reason, `PP` is picking up the wrong thing as "perl". Line 20 seems to be around the `App::Packer::PAR->new()` call, actually, I have no idea where it would be starting to look for `perl` there — or, with Carp, from which called function the complaint really comes.
