Windows 10: Component comctl32.ocx or one of its dependencies not correctly registered: a file is...

Original title: Run-time error 339

I keep receiving run-time error 339 when I try to open a program that has been installed on my laptop. The error states that "Component comdlg32.ocx or one of its dependencies not correctly registered: a file is missing or invalid." The program previously worked so I am unsure what has happened. Please tell me what I can do to rectify this. Any suggestions are greatly appreciated.

Component 'comctl32.ocx' or one of its dependencies not correctly registered: a file is missing or invalid

Hi,

Welcome and thank you for posting your query in Microsoft Community.

Please follow the steps to re-register the component and check if it helps:



Verify if comctl32.ocx is in C:\windows\system32 folder. If you, you may try re-registering the file.



1. Go to start and type
cmd.

2. Right-Click on cmd and select “Run as Administrator”.

3. Type regsvr32 comctl32.ocx and press Enter.



If successful you should get a popup saying "DllregisterServer in

comscl32.ocx succeeded"

Hope this information helps. Please post us if you need any further assistance.

Thank you.

Hi Jim,

The "component 'comdlg32.ocx or one of its dependencies not correctly registered: a file is missing or invalid" error is one of the runtime errors and will appear while the program is running.

The error "The module comctl32.ocx failed to load" is usually cause by un-registered COMCTL32.OCX component.

First, you need to verify if comctl32.ocx is in C:\Windows\System32 folder. If found, run again the
regsvr32 comctl32.ocx command.

Note: Run Command Prompt as Administrator.

Feel free to post back with the result for further assistance.
