Installing DLL, OCX & VBX Files

Below are instructions for installing the DLL, OCX & VBX files to your computer using ExpressZip. If you do not have a copy, you may download a free trial by clicking HERE.

• Step 1: Load ExpressZip by double clicking its icon on the desktop or from your startmenu.

• Step 2: Click the "Open" button on ExpressZip then browse to location you saved the zip to.

• Step 3: Once the file is open, click the box next to the DLL, OCX or VBX file.

• Step 4: Click the "Extract" button on ExpressZip.

• Step 5: In the window that opens up, select "Checked files/folders"

• Step 6: Click the image that looks like a folder and browse to the location where you would like to extract the file to. Normally you should choose the same folder as the program requestion the file. However, if that doesn't work, you will have to use the system folder. Normally system folders are:

  • C:\Windows\System (Windows 95/98/Me)

  • C:\WINNT\System32 (Windows NT/2000)

  • C:\Windows\System32 (Windows XP).

• Step 7: The program should be working now but if its not, you may need to restart your computer.

Problem Solving: If after restarting your computer the program still doesn't work, repeat the steps above but extract the file to your system folder instead of the program folder.

If the problem still occurs, you may try the following:

1. Click Start and then click Run

2. In the box that appears type CMD and then press Enter

3. On the black screen that comes up type: "regsvr32 filename" and press Enter. Replace filename with the name of the file you extracted.
