Howdy...
Okay, this crosses over a bit, and even the most experienced PC repair technician would not understand this UNLESS he/she had a background in computer programming, specifically Windows. Now as I do not know what language the application was developed in, error number 429 means absolutely nothing to me, or any programmer that I know of, but the rest of the message DOES tell me a lot!. It sounds as though an ActiveX file, which could be a DLL, or EXE, has been damaged, deleted, replaced, or moved from where the application is expecting it. The most UNLIKELY cause is a damaged file, whereas the others are have a greater chance of being the cause due to users who think making a small change to files will have 0 impact on a Windows system. Here is a simple test by which to decide if you need to make modifications to the files that have been installed on the system by your program: "If it ain't broke, don't fix it."
