BD Rebuilder start-up problem
For the last couple weeks every time I try to open BD Rebuilder, I get the following error;
System error &H80004023 (-2147467229). A Microsoft installer error was encountered. I have spent a lot of time on the phone with Microsoft and could not fix the problem. This error does not happen with any other applications on my computer. I have nowhere else to turn but ask the gang of experts on this forum for some advice. I hope I am not violating any forum rules with my ask for advice on this problem. |

It could be a problem with virtual filepath.. In what directory is BDRB installed? Is REG_MSCOMCTL.BAT run as admin from within the same directory? I know some user sometime ago reported a problem with the REG_MSCOMCTL.BAT in regard to virtual filepath and posted a solution in the bug thread.

I do not use BD-RB, but AVStoDVD is also written in VB6 and also needs a correctly registered mscomctl.ocx. And Win10 users had the same problem which you are experiencing.
The problem is that the included REG_MSCOMCTL.BAT file is not smart enough for Win10. A while ago I made an improved version for AVStoDVD which should also work for BD-RB. Download here: https://www.sendspace.com/file/2iwmqm I included a newer version of the OCX file, but generally the older file which comes with BD-RB should work under Win10. Just place the ocx file and the batch file in the same folder and double-click the batch file. This batch file will not delete mscomctl.ocx in one of the Windows system folders. If there is already an incompatible or faulty ocx present in System32 or SysWOW64 then these files will be kept. This means that after executing the batch it could happen that BD-RB will still refuse to start. In this case you have to delete all previous versions of the mscomctl.ocx file from your system folders and then execute the batch file again.

Maybe take a look at these posts: https://forum.doom9.org/showthread.p...94#post1853094 https://forum.doom9.org/showthread.p...04#post1853104 If you are interested what triggered my batch script, look here: https://forum.doom9.org/showthread.p...27#post1829727 Whatever, after this script was integrated into AVStoDVD nobody ever complained again about problems with mscomctl.ocx. |

I tried the bolded below but really don't understand how to modify the path, etc;
So its probably better to open an Administrative CMD prompt (Start -> Windows System -> right click on CMD Prompt -> More -> Run As Administrator)... When it launches, while in the window change to the BD-Rebuilder directory, and run the batch file from there (that is where the BAT file and the OCX file reside).... OR edit the BAT file, specify the path to the OCX file... then save/run it. I always get the same error as stated at the beginning of my post (ref. above). |

What exactly is not clear to you?
The archive contains the files REG_MSCOMCTL.BAT and mscomctl.ocx. The ocx file is just a newer version of the file which comes with BD-RB, it should not be needed. All you have to do is extract REG_MSCOMCTL.BAT into your BD-RB folder (where the original file by jdobbs is located) overwriting the original file. Then right-click the BAT file and run it as an administrator. Only if this does not work the following applies: Quote:

Sorry, I still don't understand the steps to take, I apologize, I'm not very technical.
When I extract BD_RBV06004.zip, I get the following; Misc File folder Tools file folder BDRD.exe CHANGES.TXT HIDDENOPTS.TXT LICENSE.TXT MSVOMCTL.OCX README.TXT REG_MSCOMCTL.BAT When I right click REG_MSCOMCTL.BAT and choose, Run as Admin, I get the following error; The module, MSCOMCTL.OCX failed to load. Make sure the binary is stored at the specified path or debug it to check for problems with the binary or dependent.DLL files. The specified module could not be found. There is also an open window that reads, C:\WINDOWS\system32>regsvr32 MSCOMCTL.OCX Note: My zip file is extracted on my D drive |

In this BD-RB folder DO NOT use the original file REG_MSCOMCTL.BAT. Instead you need to download this file:
https://www.sendspace.com/file/2iwmqm Then extract my version of REG_MSCOMCTL.BAT from this file into the BD-RB folder overwriting the existing file. Finally run the batch file. (maybe turn off your Antivirus software temporarily before running the batch file). |

Good to hear that it worked...
@jdobbs Maybe you could include my version of REG_MSCOMCTL.BAT in your BD-RB distribution. It was tested by MrC and others up to Win10 with UAC turned on. Cheers manolito Last edited by manolito; 17th May 2019 at 18:56. |

And I have Windows 10 as well, everything works great for the first time in a month (after the installation of Office 365 a month ago, not sure if that caused the problem, but problem began around the time of 365 install)

Just edit the bat file included in BD-RB... Change... Code:
regsvr32 MSCOMCTL.OCX Code:
regsvr32 c:\bd-rb\MSCOMCTL.OCX OR Find Command Prompt on your start menu (usually under the Windows System group), right click it and run as administrator. While in the window, change to the drive and folder containing the BAT and OCX files, and run the bat file. Another way is to just copy the OCX and BAT files from BD-RB folder into c:\windows\system32 folder and run the bat file as admin. |
