    Just create an empty msjava.dll in SysWOW64 using Notepad to save the restart.

    Always been the case with Win10+ versions. The whole thread is moot since the begining.

    My README in install folder reads this:

    Code:
    1. copy empty msjava.dll to System32 or SysWOW64 on x64
    2. Uncheck Data Access
    3. Uncheck Enterprise Tools->Visual Studio Analyzer
    4. Uncheck Tools->OLE/COM object viewer
    . . . but it is only first point which makes the difference nowadays.

    Edit: Who else wants signalling admins to delete this whole thread as dangerous and spreading F.U.D. about VB6 setup? Or at least it being reduced to a single point with one sentence: "Copy empty msjava.dll to SysWOW64 and then run setup.exe as usual."

    cheers,
