WinMPQ asplosion!

I got Windows 7 and now WinMPQ won't run. I installed VB40032.dll or whatever it asks for, but it gives an error about the registry instead now. Help?

EDIT: The exact error is "Error accessing the system registry".



None.

Make sure it's running under administrator.

You could still be missing mscomctl.ocx or might not have it registered. Unfortunately, I don't think it works to simply put that file in the same folder as WinMPQ.

I do think he has to register it.

put it in windows\system32
winkey + r and type in
regsvr32 mscomctl.ocx

it should yell that it registered succesfully.

Also, that's only if you don't have a x64 proccesor. For x64 the registering is different.



fuck you all

I'm getting an error when I try to register the .ocx file. And yes, I did download it and put it in the right place.



None.

Use PyMPQ?

Meh. WinMPQ has the ability to open files directly from the MPQ and a working rename function so I'd rather have it working.



None.

You can open files directly from PyMPQ too. The rename should only not work if SFmpq says it didn't work. Are you sure you don't have the MPQ open in something like DatEdit when trying to modify it? The only thing that PyMPQ doesn't have (aside from possibly the rename thing) is being able to drag files from explorer into the list, but if you can't use WinMPQ then...

Are you using a 32-bit or 64-bit version?



None.
