Issue Description:
NerfEd does not run at all or crashes while booting on some versions of Windows, despite having installed the Community Pack. Additionally, you receive an error regarding (.ocx) files like "threed32".
Solution #1 - Manually Install and Register .ocx Libraries
First, download and place the .ocx files in C:/Windows/SysWOW64. Next, register these files using the version of regsvr32.exe found in C:/Windows/SysWOW64. If you have UAC (User Account Controls) on, you may need to run regsvr32.exe as an administrator by right clicking on C:/Windows/SysWOW64/cmd.exe and selecting Run as Administrator; then in the command line window just type:
regsvr32 c:\windows\syswow64\threed32.ocx
Press enter, and then repeat this process for the remaining files. For reference they are:
- comctl32.ocx
- comdlg32.ocx
- msoutl32.ocx
- picclp32.ocx
- richtx32.ocx
- tabctl32.ocx
- threed32.ocx
Additional Notes:
Make sure you use backslashes on the command line items. It will not work with forward slashes.
