This file: MSWINSCK.OCX won't let me open a file!


Recommended Posts

I have done lots of things! Copied it into different files, did CMD on it but still it won't let me open:

Component 'MSWINSCK.OCX' or one of it's dependencies not correctly registered: a file missing or invalid.

Now how do I find out what dependencies it could be as there isn't any other files there?

Also I have moved it into C:\Windows\System and C:\Windows\System36 or something!

I am really confused and it doesn't make sense, I am not the brightest spark so don't get too technical.

The file should be put in the C:\WINDOWS\system32 folder

To register your mswinsck.ocx file

Select START on the Windows Task Bar,

Select RUN and type:

Regsvr32 mswinsck.ocx

Then select OK.

Provide all control dependencies have been correctly installed and register, this should successfully register the OCX file.

You'll eventually get a message saying the OCX has been successfully registered

You could also try:

** Complete internet repair**

Which contains "Winsock Repair"

You've left us kinda "Second Guessing" what the original problem was here.

Follow the previous posts by Boris and Pat.

If you dont want to get too technical (or tell us what the problem is) just download "Complete Internet Repair"

It may just be a fix for your winsock problems.

Tick all the tabs, and press the button "Go" :)

Come back and tell us how you get on.
