comdlg32.ocx Help

Hi,

Thank you for posting your query in Microsoft Community.

I understand the frustration when things don't work as expected.

I suggest you to follow the below steps.

When you install software that uses the comdlg32.ocx, the software should automatically register the file for you. In some cases your OCX file may not register properly, and as a result, will provide a "comdlg32.ocx not registered" error. Fortunately,
you can use a built-in utility called "Microsoft Register Server" (regsvr32.exe) to re-register your comdlg32.ocx file.

How to re-register comdlg32.ocx from an elevated command prompt (Windows 10).

• Click the Start button.
• Type "command" in the search box... DO NOT hit
  ENTER yet!
• While holding CTRL-Shift on your keyboard, hit
  ENTER.
• You will be prompted with a permission dialog box.
• Click Yes.
• Type the following command: regsvr32 /u comdlg32.ocx.
• Hit ENTER. This will UN-REGISTER your file.
• Type the following command: regsvr32 /i comdlg32.ocx.
• Hit ENTER. This will RE-REGISTER your file.
• Close the command prompt window.

Re-start the program associated with comdlg32.ocx error.

Hope this helps resolving the issue, if issue persists do get back to us we will be glad to help you.

Thank you.

Running Win & and not letting me register a OCX file

There is no 64 bit version of comdlg32.ocx. It's 32 bit, but
you can still register the ocx.
In Vista Ultimate x64, you need to place the Comdlg32.ocx in the directory C:\Windows\SysWOW64\ you can then run "regsvr32
C:\Windows\SysWOW64\Comdlg32.ocx" and it should register the file.

open an elevated command prompt. then type:

regsvr32 C:\Windows\SysWOW64\Comdlg32.ocx

I pick this info up over at Vista forums and it worked for me. Hope it works for you.*Smile
