what to do????
@Anonymous – Guess it’s the problem with the application you’re trying with. For me, it worked perfectly. Try rebooting and add the comdlg32.ocx file once again
I’ve tried this, but it says:
“The Module C:\Windows\System32\comdlg32.ocx failed to load.
Make sure the binary is stored at the specific path or debug it to check for problems with the binary or dependant .DLL files.
The Specific Module could not be found.
.”
Can you please help? Thanks.
