In order to register mscomct2.ocx (which is in syswow64) I go to cmd.exe as Administrator, then enter : regsvr32.exe c:\windows\syswow64\mscomct2.ocx.

It works and I get the message that it has been registered.

THEN I go to VB 6.0, and under the Project tab I click on "Components". I find "Microsoft Windows Common Controls-2 6.0(SP6)" which is mscomct2.ocx.

I check it but whether I then click on "OK" or on "Apply" I get ther message FILE NOT FOUND !!

How can I register it or find it under c:\windows\syswow64 (in Explorer) and yet VB 6.0/Project/Components tells me "File not Found" ? Now what ?
