In this paper we want to solve a fifty year old problem on R-algebras over cotorsionfree commutative rings R with 1. For simplicity (but only for the abstract) we will assume that R is any countable principal ideal domain, but not a field. For example R can be the ring Z or the polynomial ring Q[x]. An R-algebra A is called a generalized E(R)-algebra if its algebra End_R_ A of R-module endomorphisms of the underlying R-module RA is isomorphic to A (as an R-algebra). Properties, including the existence of such algebras are derived in various papers ([5, 6, 9, 10, 20, 22, 24, 25]). The study was stimulated by Fuchs [13], and specially by Schultz [26]. But due to [26] the investigation concentrated on ordinary commutative E(R)-algebras. A substantial part of problem 45 (p. 232) in the monograph [13] (repeated in later publications, e.g. [27]), which will be answered positively for all rings R above in this paper, remained open:
