Mohenjo Daro Posted August 11, 2019 Share Posted August 11, 2019 Try this first:1) Open the `.vbp` file in a text editor (notepad is fine)2) Find the line with `mscomctl.ocx` (it should look similar to this `Object={831FDD16-0C5C-11D2-A9FC-0000F8754DA1}#2.0#0; MSCOMCTL32.OCX`)3) Change the `2.0` or `2.1` and change it the the other value (2.0 -> 2.1 and 2.1 -> 2.0)4) Save and try opening it with VB6 again***If that doesn't work, try running the following command in an Admin Command Prompt`regsvr32 mscomctl.ocxregsvr32 mscomctl32.ocx`***If that doesn't work, try installing VB6 SP6https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=5721***If that doesn't work, try reinstalling the runtimeshttp://www.mediafire.com/file/ll0jbjg0zs132tn/Run_First%2521_%2528Runtime_Files_-_If_Needed%2529.exe/file Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mecha Knuckles Posted August 12, 2019 Share Posted August 12, 2019 I was having trouble with mscomctl.ocx myself. My fix was this:-Download a fresh copy of mscomctl.ocx here: https://www.ocxme.com/download/3266/MSCOMCTL.OCX-Extract it to User/Windows/SysWOW64 (if 64 bit) or User/Windows/System32 (if 32 bit)-Open command prompt as admin and type these commands, hitting enter after each line:cd\cd %systemroot%\syswow64regsvr32 /u mscomctl.ocxregsvr32 mscomctl.ocx-(If 32 bit system, replace the syswow64 with system32)Give that a shot.
