error message in 3.11.2

[kiwixmas]

hi just started thinking about this coming years display  and started up lor     and get this message when I go to open sequencing

COMDLG32.OCX  . or one of its dependences not correctly registered: a file is missing or invalid

 

does this mean I have to buy a new licence ??? ( but checking licence  says ok to 3.15 )???

any help would be appreciated   , thanks

Your license never expires, so doubt that is the problem.  Have you tried to reinstall LOR?

A file is missing or invalid. What operating system are you running?

This may help depending on your operating system.

This has nothing to do with your license.

 

COMDLG32.OCX is a standard Windows file that is made available by Microsoft for the use of other programs (such as Light-O-Rama).  The first thing I would try would be to do a "Repair" on Light-O-Rama (through Add/Remove Programs).  If you have any running LOR programs, make sure that you stop all of them before doing this (including the LOR Control Panel, which you can stop by right-clicking on its system tray icon and then selecting "Unload Light-O-Rama" from the popup menu that will open).

 

If that did not help, I would try Windows Update.

 

I would not recommend downloading files like this directly from websites.
