The xxx module was loaded, but the DllUnregisterServer call failed with error code 0040200.
You can find more information about this problem on the Internet by using the error code as a search term.
Cause of error
CDO DLLs are used by applications to communicate with databases, for example for reporting and quarantine. Cdosys.dll and cdoex.dll contain commands to access them, but they are slightly different. Programs cannot execute certain commands with a DLL if the registry is incorrect. cdoex.dll is sometimes stored in the registry where cdosys.dll should be. It is not known why, but it is suspected that this is due to another program using CDO communication (with databases) or that Windows has incorrectly updated the records by re-recording them.
Save the file after installing.
If you see this error when trying to install an application, it is probably because some dependencies are not loaded correctly. If this is the case, you will probably need to run the installer with administrator privileges and then manually remove and re-register the failed dependency to resolve the issue.
- Open the file explorer and navigate to the installation location where the error occurred.
- Right-click and select Run as Administrator from the context menu that appears.
- Follow the on-screen instructions to complete the installation. You don’t mind if you see the same error 0040200 – just close the error window and go to the next step.
- Open the Run dialog box by pressing Windows + R. Then type cmd in the text box and press Ctrl + Shift + Enter to open the command line with the expanded CMD.
- In the command line terminal, enter the following commands in order and press Enter after each command to cancel the OCX dependency and re-register:
- spri32x30.ocx / UNRESIGNED
- spri32x30.ocx / REGSERVER
- Restart the computer and see if the problem is resolved the next time you start the computer.
