Anyone have any ideas? We don’t want to use the bloated legacy install and then run it in compatibility mode, and we don’t want to get a current developer to rebuild either app so we can deploy the new PCs. How to re-register Tabctl32.ocx from an elevated command prompt (Windows XP, Vista, 7, 8, and 10): Hit the Windows Start button. The last ditch effort? Try compatibility mode to XP – The test box with the “bloated” installer can run it, but the clean box cannot. However in an attempt to fix the issue we ran it on a test box – it copied the OCX file and put entries in the registry – now starting the app says: “unknown error”.
There is a legacy installer tool (it does a lot of weird stuff and was written by the same developer) that we don’t want to use because it does a lot of “not useful” stuff, and has out lived its usefulness. But none of the solutions seem to work with this app’s issue and Win7.
Normally the error says “Component ‘TABCT元2.OCX’ or one of its dependencies not correctly registered: a file missing or invalid.” Now Googling this I get all kinds of solutions for this in Vista, and some XP, etc. After this try running the software again. This will register the file with the system. But when installing/using a home grown app (was developed in house by a programmer who left the company) that is essential to our users there is an error. Just right click on the TABCT元2.OCX file, click Open With, browse 'regsvr32.exe' file in C:WindowsSystem32 folder and click OK. We finally get a budget to get some new PCs, they come with Windows 7 - no problems yet.
