Problem with the install by level_91 on 10-22-2004 at 10:21 AM

Hi, I'm new to Plus. I've just installed it and I've tried to install the Tweak application (from: http://msgplus.net/help_registry.php ) as well, but I can't. I get this error message as soon as I double click on Tweak's icon:

I'm running XP with Messenger Version: 6.2.0137 and Plus! Version: 3.25.106

Thank you very much in advance for any help you may give me.

Make sure you have the file comctl32.ocx present on your system.
Download it here and put it in the same folder :)

Thank you Tochjo!
That worked. I was just wondering, why wasn't that file there in the first place? Why did it have to be downloaded separately?
I just wanted to know if anything was wrong at my end.
Is it a common question/problem?

Some programs made in a certain programming language require additional files to run properly. This isn't the only program that gives these errors, and the solution is to simply replace the old version of the file with a new one, or, if the file doesn't exist at all, to put it there. It's nothing to worry about.

More people have reported this problem with Plus! Tweak!; I took a look at its thread (http://shoutbox.menthix.net/showthread.php?tid=25692) before I answered your question, and saw this was exactly the response the author (Choli) gave there :)
