Publisher's Description

From 4Developers:

COM Explorer helps developers and system administrators explore, manage, and fix ActiveX controls, EXE servers, and DLL servers. An Explorer-like GUI allows developers to browse registered COM objects and view information, such as CLSID, TypeLib, version information, and file information. Misbehaving objects, such as objects with missing files left as junk in the Registry, are clearly marked. A fully integrated Registry editor allows you to view and edit COM settings. COM Explorer is integrated into Windows Explorer, allowing you to quickly register, unregister, compare, and view COM controls using a pop-up menu.

Version 2.0 features a new user interface, the ability to register or unregister multiple COM controls with a single click, the ability to compare COM control versions across multiple remote computers, fixes for several bugs, and more.

"two thumbs up"

Vikk January 26, 2006 / Version: COM Explorer 2.0

2006-01-26 10:20:05 | By Vikk

Pros

it's a good program, and is easy to use

Cons

dispite my many failures to register my yvertr.dll, well you can't always get what you want, but these dll files are a pain anyway...I would like to see some sort of help menu added to it...even if it's just a general one :)

"Too much money for this features"

August 01, 2002 / Version: COM Explorer 2.0

Summary

Easy to use and small in size, but it is too expensive for what it offfers. I'm using another tool called 'COM Up! 2.0' with more features to handle all activex issues on my system.

"Nice but much too expensive"

Summary

Very good program, but $150 is too much. Try Resource Tuner 1.81 instead, is cheaper and can handle even more ressource types.

"O boy, o boy ...."

February 05, 2002 / Version: COM Explorer 2.0

Summary

This little tool sure is a must-have for every COM developer. Surely people a little experienced in COM dev. have met the DLL Hell problem more then one. This tool let's you deal with those evil 'dead' registry entries on you local machine swiftly. Never ever will the need arise to type 'regedit' in your 'RUN' Start-menu function again.

2001-12-06 20:22:00

Summary

Really easy to use ActiveX and dll manager. Even with knowing diddily-squit about registrys, I was able to register and un-register at my leisure, got me out of trouble once or twice too...

"Good Tool"

December 06, 2001 / Version: COM Explorer 2.0

2001-12-06 08:32:00

Summary

Nice tool. Does what it says. Had no problems with it. Very easy to use. The $150 is a bit much for a single tool. How about $25?
