Screenshot of COM Explorer v2.0

COM Explorer is a unique tool specifically designed to enable developers and system administrators to explore, manage and fix ActiveX Controls, EXE Servers (Out-Proc) and DLL Servers (In-Proc). An Explorer like GUI allows developers to browse registered COM objects and view information such as GUID, TypeLib, version information, dependency information, file information and more.

Misbehaved objects such as objects with missing files left as junk in the registry are clearly marked.

A Registry editor is fully integrated allowing to view and edit COM settings. COM Explorer is integrated into Windows Explorer enabling to quickly register, unregister and view COM Controls using a pop-up menu.

One of the most powerful features is an inventory report generator. HTML or comma delimited text reports are easily generated . These reports include a list of the COM objects installed. Strong filtering and customization capabilities are provided as well.

New Features In Version 2.0:

  • New user interface allows you to select multiple COM objects and perform operations on the selected group. Previous versions allowed single selection only. Multiple selection applies to many operations as listed below.
  • Register or unregister multiple COM controls with a single mouse click.
  • Remove multiple "misbehaved" COM Controls from the system Registry with a single click. This long awaited feature saves countless hours if you have many "dead" COM entries in the Registry.
  • Compare COM control versions across multiple remote computers. This feature allows you to easily check if controls are registered on one remote machine or more. You can also generate HTML reports containing the results.
  • A new feature allows you to specify how COM Explorer behaves after a control is registered, unregistered or removed from the Registry. You can choose between displaying a confirmation dialog (with or without the need to click an OK button), making a beep sound and a "no confirmation" option.
  • Quickly change the information displayed in the object list by using 4 new buttons that were added to the main toolbar. You can select between ProgID, CLSID, TypeLib and file location.
  • "Misbehaved" COM controls are now marked with bright red color and are underlined. This new feature allows you to quickly identify the controls that need to be removed or re-registered.
  • A new feature allows you to view multiple ActiveX controls in Internet Explorer.
  • After a new COM control is registered it is automatically selected in the controls list.

System Requirements:

  • Windows 95, 98, NT, 2000/ Me, XP
