the_jaz Posted November 27, 2003 Share Posted November 27, 2003 Hello everyone. I downloaded v4.1 of the AutoPatcher and am having some difficulties getting it to run on my system. After unpacking the file and reading the readme.txt file, I ran the AutoPatcherXP.exe menu program, clicked on "Run AutoPatcher XP" in the menu, clicked "I agree" at the EULA, and got a "Runtime Error 372: Failed to load control 'ProgressBar' from COMCTL32.OCX. Your version of COMCTL32.OCX may be outdated. Make sure you are using the version of the control that was provided with your application." On a whim (even though it isn't shown as a fix for this exact problem), I downloaded AutoPatcher_XP_NOV.exe from this thread and tried that...got the EULA and then the same error message. Any help on this would be most appreciated. Oh, and I do have SP1 installed. Thanks in advance for your help. :) - jaz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
akaladis Veteran Posted November 27, 2003 Veteran Share Posted November 27, 2003 hmmm this is a weird one... try this... Start -> Run, and type this: regsvr32 "Drive:\Path\To\COMCTL32.OCX" tell me if this solves it... /Raptor Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FlishFun Veteran Posted November 27, 2003 Veteran Share Posted November 27, 2003 That did the trick, Raptor...works like a charm, now. Thanks for the help! :) Well I had missed this one all together, but I'm glad Raptor could hook you up. Hmm... you know, I think I'll compile a list of problems like this and post them in the F.A.Q. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
akaladis Veteran Posted November 28, 2003 Veteran Share Posted November 28, 2003 this was prolly caused by some old VB5/6 application that used an old version of that control... hate that! /Raptor Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the_jaz Posted November 28, 2003 Author Share Posted November 28, 2003 Well, at least this was an easy fix...always nice to not have a major disaster. :D Oh, and yes, little problems like this probably would be pretty handy in the FAQ, FlishFun, but it's nice to be able to talk to you guys, too. :) Anyway, thanks for the help. The program ran beautifully. :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

akaladis Veteran Posted December 5, 2003 Veteran Share Posted December 5, 2003 do this: start -> run -> and then give: regsvr32 /u "Drive:\Path\To\COMCTL32.OCX" regsvr32 /u "Drive:\Path\To\MSCOMCTL.OCX" regsvr32 /u "Drive:\Path\To\RICHTX32.OCX" This will unregister all the DLL/ActiveX controls AutoPatcher uses... It's actually giving AutoPatcher the signal to do a fresh start, cause it looks like a program you installed entertained itself (hehe) over your DLLs :D After this, you can run AutoPatcher again... if that doesnt work, ill have to give you further instructions :D Hope this fixes it :D /Raptor Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

akaladis Veteran Posted December 14, 2003 Veteran Share Posted December 14, 2003 they *should* be copied to your %systemroot%\system32 folder by now... attention... not system... system32! %systemroot%\system32 usually is c:\windows\system32 /Raptor Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
