TeenyTinyTools  (1 Submission)   Registry   Visual Basic 5.0   Intermediate   Wed 3rd February 2021

DLLRegClean searches Windows Registry and cleans up all references to DLL file appointed by the user.
Every VB developer faced situations when same DLL is listed more than one time in the list of the registered ActiveX DLL's. Broken or multiple installtions in different folders, bugs in installer, broken binary compatibilty during developing of ActiveX are only most common causes. This is a real pain for developer to identify which version should be added to the project, and the best way to avoid DLL conflict is clean up the registry and registered only last version of the DLL.
