comctl32.ocx missing?!!
Posted: 29 Oct 2015, 20:38
I have a program on my computer which needs the above dll which seems to have disappeared. I am operating W7 64.
I have read and re-read entries on the web regarding this problem and have tried several of them to no avail. Even with brand new downloads of visualbasic 6 from the MS website I cannot get that dll to operate.
I have just read a web entry which involves finding a critical MS update, it came up as 24/04/2015, and then going through a safe mode system restore routine entering the latter date when required. That date precedes the date on which I bought this computer and I have just spent the last four weeks rebuilding my Fs9 setup. If I go through with this "system restore" routine would that wipe out the whole of my new FS9 setup? I really do not want that!
Other routines from the MS website do not seem to work for me although the comctl32.ocx missing seems to be quite a common problem.
Can any knowledgeable forum member help please?
