What are tx4ole20.ocx Error Messages?


ActiveX-Related tx4ole20.ocx Errors

tx4ole20.ocx is considered a type of COM file, or Component Object Model, most commonly known as an ActiveX control. ActiveX controls like tx4ole20.ocx are used by File Viewer Lite and other software to display media-related content. Therefore, your will most likely encounter a tx4ole20.ocx error when attempting to load an audio or video clip, or view some variety of embedded website content. Some of the most common tx4ole20.ocx ActiveX errors include:

These OCX errors are most commonly due a missing or corrupt OCX. If your file is missing or corrupt, this could be caused by improper computer shutdown, or a malware infection, both of which could corrupt (or even delete) tx4ole20.ocx. If your tx4ole20.ocx is corrupted or missing, and therefore cannot be properly loaded by File Viewer Lite, this will result in an error message.

Finally, another common cause of tx4ole20.ocx ActiveX errors can be contributed to an ActiveX-related subkey missing from the Windows registry. Broken DLL (Dynamic Link Library) references in the Windows registry can prevent tx4ole20.ocx from registering properly, resulting in an ActiveX error. These broken references (registry keys) are usually triggered by a moved or missing file, or as a result of a leftover DLL file reference after a shared program has been uninstalled.



How to Fix tx4ole20.ocx Errors in 4 Steps (Time to complete: ~5-15 minutes)

If you're encountering one of the error messages above, follow these troubleshooting steps to resolve your tx4ole20.ocx issue. These troubleshooting steps are listed in the recommended order of execution.


Step 1: Use Microsoft Register Server (regsvr) to Manually Register Your tx4ole20.ocx File

When you install File Viewer Lite, or another software that uses the tx4ole20.ocx dependency, the software should register the file automatically. Sometimes your OCX file won't get registered properly and will trigger a "tx4ole20.ocx not registered" error. Thankfully, Microsoft included a handy built-in utility called "Microsoft Register Server" (regsvr32.exe) to enable you to manually re-register your tx4ole20.ocx file.

How to re-register tx4ole20.ocx from an elevated command prompt (Windows XP, Vista, 7, 8, and 10):

  1. Hit the Windows Start button
  2. In the search box, type "command" (do not presss ENTER yet)
  3. While holding CTRL-Shift, hit ENTER.
  4. You will be prompted with a permission dialog box.
  5. Click Yes.
  6. Type this command: regsvr32 /u tx4ole20.ocx
  7. Hit ENTER. This process will UN-register your file, allowing you to RE-register it.
  8. Type this command: regsvr32 /i tx4ole20.ocx
  9. Hit ENTER. This process will RE-register your file.
  10. Close the command prompt window.
  11. Re-start File Viewer Lite.

regsvr32 /u tx4ole20.ocx

Step 2: Restore your PC back to the latest restore point, "snapshot", or backup image before error occurred.

To begin System Restore (Windows XP, Vista, 7, 8, and 10):

  1. Hit the Windows Start button
  2. When you see the search box, type "System Restore" and press "ENTER".
  3. In the search results, find and click System Restore.
  4. Please enter the administrator password (if applicable / prompted).

  6. Restore your computer to that backup image.

Step 3: If recently installed File Viewer Lite (or related software), uninstall then try reinstalling File Viewer Lite software.

Step 4: Perform a Windows Update.

  1. Hit the Windows Start button
  2. In the search box, type "Update" and press "ENTER".
  3. In the Windows Update dialog box, click "Check for Updates" (or similar button depending on your Windows version)

  5. After the update is completed, restart your PC.

If Windows Update failed to resolve the tx4ole20.ocx error message, please proceed to next step. Please note that this final step is recommended for advanced PC users only.



If Those Steps Fail: Download and Replace Your tx4ole20.ocx File (Caution: Advanced)
