Kerrence Posted November 4, 2013 Share Posted November 4, 2013 I run the Registry Cleaner weekly. While my user side has virtually no issues, my wife's user side has numerous ActiveX/COM Issues every week. A sampling of these issues is in the Notepad attachment. Can anyone tell me how to permanently resolve these ActiveX/COM Issues? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moderators mta Posted November 4, 2013 Moderators Share Posted November 4, 2013 most of them seem to be related to a video codec on her PC. basically, she watches a video, on the PC, through a web browser etc, and is getting these each time. sounds like you have been removing them in the past - with no ill side-effects, so you could continue to do that. but if they are simply going to keep reappearing, why not right click each one and EXCLUDE it from future scans. and from a completely personal point, I think 1) cleaning the registry should be done with great care, even though CC is very non-aggresive, things sometimes go pear-shaped. and 2) maybe weekly is a tad to anal, weighing up the potential risk(slight) against the potential benefit(low) Backup now & backup often.It's your digital life - protect it with a backup.Three things are certain; Birth, Death and loss of data.
