Question

User1815691808 posted

I tested the same project deployed in windows 7, in windows 10. I am getting this error 

ActiveX component can't create object

I made sure that this component is available in component services. Is that specific to windows 10 issue?

Please guide

Hi divyakabali,

Please enable the failed request tracing, then it should display the error code and error line number like this:

https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/iis/troubleshoot/using-failed-request-tracing/troubleshooting-failed-requests-using-tracing-in-iis

In addition, the IIS 7 and IIS 10 should use the same architecture. So I think the best way to fix this issue is compare the difference between authenticated user, NTFS permission, IIS configuration, anti-virus,firewall.

The error' message ActiveX component can't create object' could not provide much information to fix this issue.

Best Regards,
