You must first actually CHECK the option to run it in compatibility mode, and then select which one from the drop down menu.

Try running it as Administrator. Right click on the .exe and select Run as Administrator. I downloaded it, unpacked it on a Vista machine and did that, it worked.

try this: http://windowsxp.mvps.org/comdlg32.htm read the box about Vista, you need an elevated command prompt.

I went to the website like you told me to do and this came up

I clicked Start, click All Programs, click Accessories, right-click Command Prompt, and then click Run as administrator.

You should read that site again, because you made a mistake.

You must open an Elevated command prompt as dictated.
and then type :

Code: Select all

regsvr32  %Systemroot%\System32\comdlg32.ocx
Make sure you saved the ocx file in your windows/system32 folder first.

Excellent! I'm glad it works now! For all you folks that have the same problem, the total solution is in batmanass47's post.

No, I have no idea when and if I can do a 2011 update. I'm too busy with other stuff at the moment.
