How do I manually UNregister type libraries (.tlb)

[gd047]

I thought I could, using regtlib.exe, but I have not find a way yet

Newer versions of regtlib.exe have a -u switch that will let you unregister type libraries. If your version of regtlib.exe doesn't support this switch and you can't find a newer version, you can also do it with this utility:

Or this utility:

Hi,
Here's a link to a KB that addresses registering and unregistering ActiveX controls and type libraries in Windows.

Good luck.

It is talking only about registering and not unregistering. Older versions of regtlib.exe do not support unregistering type libraries.

Hi gd047,
Try this link:

It contains info on registering and unregistering type libraries. Hope this helps.

Good luck.
