For example, most browsers on Windows are 32-bit (such as Internet Explorer 32-bit, Firefox, and Chrome), and they run well on 64-bit Windows with Shockwave Player today. Accordingly, Shockwave Player currently runs well on Windows 7 64-bit using any of these 32-bit browsers. I've recently installed windows 10 from windows 7. I have now run in to an issue where microsoft Common Controlls mscomctl is not founnd. I have registered the 'MSCOMCTL.OCX' file with sysWow64/Regsvr32.exe. But when I reload the project it still cant find the reference. I've also registered the.ocx with System32.

Publisher's Description. DownloadX ActiveX Download Control is a free download manager ActiveX control used to download files from the Internet or Intranet. To speed up the downloading process, DownloadX will split each file into several segments and download each file segment in a separate thread at the same time. The remote computer, in the case of Java Viewer, is visible to the users who use the Java Technology. However, the ActiveX viewer uses the browser’s ActiveX components. So, the browser from where you have to establish the connection should also have the ActiveX control enabled. 32-bit windows, such as XP, have mscomct2.ocx in c: windows system32. For windows 64-bit you need to put mscomct2.ocx in a different directory, c: windows syswow64. In conflict with the above paragraph, I have also read that you need to put the MSCOMCT2.OCX in the same folder as your program.

I want to use MSCOMM control in my MS Excel 2010 VBA. The control shall appear in Tools-> Additional Controls dialog box in VBE of MS Excel 2010.

I am trying to register MSCOMM32.OCX on my 64-bit Windows 7 machine. However, as I try to register it using regsvr32 as shown in the command window below, I am getting shown error popup.

What am I missing here? Why is this component not getting registered?

Or this is not the correct way to include MSCOMM control in MS Excel VBA?

I have read following:

But to no avail.

Put your ocx control to C:WindowsSysWOW64 and try to re-register it in that location with the 32 bit regsvr32:

If it doesn't work: you could try to pick a different version. you could also check if it has all its dependencies already installed.

Here is what I have read about mscomct2.ocx. I have not verified anything.

mscomct2.ocx is an activex calendar control. You can obtain an up to date version of mscomct2.ocx from http://activex.microsoft.com/controls/vb6/mscomct2.cab.

32-bit windows, such as XP, have mscomct2.ocx in c:windowssystem32.

For windows 64-bit you need to put mscomct2.ocx in a different directory, c:windowssyswow64.

In conflict with the above paragraph, I have also read that you need to put the MSCOMCT2.OCX in the same folder as your program. Eg. if your program is in C:MyApp folder, then put the MSCOMCT2.OCX file in C:MyApp folder too.

Once the mscomct2.ocx file is installed, it needs to be registered. You can use the Microsoft Register Server (Regsvr32.exe) to register a 32- bit .ocx file manually on a 32-bit operating system. You must run regsvr32 as admin.

How to register .ocx control in windows 7

In conflict with the above statement from support.microsoft.com, this works on a 64-bit system as long as the ocx file is in the syswow64 directory.

If you have obtained the file and registered, yet still have problmes, it might help to first unregister, then register:

regsvr32 /u mscomctl.ocx

regsvr32 mscomctl.ocx

I have an old VB6 OCX which works fine on Windows 7 IE (32 bit), but it does not work on IE (64 bit).

Download

Could someone please tell me the reason why its not working on IE (64 bit)? What are the possible options to fix this?

The 64-bit version of IE only supports 64-bit add-ons. Your OCX is 32-bit so its not supported.

The Visual Basic 6.0 IDE

The Visual Basic 6.0 IDE is no longer supported as of April 8, 2008. However, Custom Support Agreements may be available from Microsoft. Additionally, both the Windows and Visual Basic teams have tested Visual Basic 6.0 IDE on Windows Vista, Windows 7, Windows Server 2008, and Windows 8 to understand and mitigate (if appropriate) serious regressions in application compatibility. This announcement does not change the support policy for the IDE.

The Visual Basic 6.0 Runtime

The Visual Basic 6.0 runtime is defined as the compiled binary files originally included in the redistribution list for Visual Basic 6.0. These files were marked as distributable in the original Visual Basic 6.0 license. Examples of these files include the Visual Basic 6.0 runtime library (msvbvm60.dll), controls (i.e. msflxgrd.ocx) along with runtime support files for other major functional areas (i.e. MDAC).

The runtime is divided into the three groups:

Supported Runtime Files

Shipping in the OS: Key Visual Basic 6.0 runtime files, used in the majority of application scenarios, are shipping in and supported for the lifetime of Windows Vista, Windows Server 2008, Windows 7, or Windows 8. This lifetime is five years of mainstream support and five years of extended support from the time that a given version of Windows ships. These files have been tested for compatibility as part of our testing of Visual Basic 6.0 applications running on Windows Vista. Note: the list of files shipping in Windows Vista, Windows Server 2008, Windows 7, Windows 8, and Windows XP are nearly identical and redist requirements for applications should be nearly identical. One key difference is TriEdit.dll was removed from Windows Vista and later versions.

Supported Runtime Files

Extended Files to Distribute with your application: extended list of key controls, libraries, and tools that are installed from the IDE media or from Microsoft.com to the developer machine. Typically the VB6 IDE installed these controls to the developer machine by default. The developer still needs to redistribute these files with the application. The supported version of the files is available online on the Microsoft Download Center (http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkID=142927).

Unsupported Runtime Files

Some files have either fallen out of mainstream support or they were never included as a part of the runtime redist (e.g. they were included in Tools folder on the IDE media to support legacy VB4/VB5 applications or they were 3rd party controls). These files are not supported on Windows; instead they are subject to whatever support agreement applies to the media they were shipped with. These files have been tested to work on Vista as part of our application compatibility and testing process, but this implies no warranties around support and servicing. In some instances, later versions of these libraries are supported. Details on backward compatibility or migration to supported versions are provided below.

The Visual Basic 6.0 runtime has been tested for compatibility between Windows XP and Windows Vista / Windows Server 2008/Windows 7/Windows 8 with a goal that applications work similarly on these operating systems. As with any release of the operating system, there may be differences in functionality that will require modifications to your applications. These differences will be addressed on a case-by-case basis via normal support channels.

64-Bit Windows

Visual Basic 6.0 runtime files are 32-bit. These files ship in 64-bit Windows Operating Systems referenced in the table below. 32-bit VB6 applications and components are supported in the WOW emulation environment only. 32-bit components must also be hosted in 32-bit application processes.

Windows

The Visual Basic 6.0 IDE has never been offered in a native 64-bit version, nor has the 32-bit IDE been supported on 64-bit Windows. VB6 development on 64-bit Windows or any native architecture other than 32-bit is not and will not be supported.

Windows 7

Since the initial release of this support statement, the Windows 7 operating system has been announced. This document has been updated to clarify Microsoft’s support for VB6 on Windows 7.

VB6 runtime will ship and will be supported in Windows 7 for the lifetime of the OS. Visual Basic 6.0 runtime files continue to be 32-bit only and all components must be hosted in 32-bit application processes. Developers can think of the support story for Windows 7 being the same as it is for Windows Vista.

Windows 8

Comctl32 Ocx Download Windows 7

Since the initial release of this support statement, the Windows 8 operating system has been announced. This document has been updated to clarify Microsoft’s support for VB6 on Windows 8.

VB6 runtime will ship and will be supported in Windows 8 for the lifetime of the OS. Visual Basic 6.0 runtime files continue to be 32-bit only and all components must be hosted in 32-bit application processes. Developers can think of the support story for Windows 8 being the same as it is for Windows 7.
