Remove from Reference

[stm]

Hi,

I've install some MTS COM, and after some time, I've install that COM again (with new CLSID) without first remove the old one. Now, in VB->Reference, there are more than one entry for the same COM (different CLSID), and I've tried to remove it using the Control Panel->Add / Remove Program, but failed.

When I run the app now, I frequently meet the problem that the app will just hanged, the only way to stop it is to kill the mtx.exe process using Task Manager.

How can I cleanly remove such COM and solve the program hang problem?

Thx

You have two registry CLSID entries for the same COM server.

The fastest way to clean up is to run REGCLEAN.EXE. It's from Microsoft- but it's everywhere on the net.

You can download from here -

you can use Regsvr32.exe to unregist a dll.

Yes, he can, and that is THE BEST WAY, but he doesn't know which one to nuke, necessarily.
