AxIterop note generated

Question

Hello everyone, back in VS2017 when referencing an OCX two files were created and referenced:

• Interop.XYZLib.dll
• AxInterop.XYZLib.dll

from there I was able to create a wrapper around AxInterop.XYZLib.dll that exposes the methods and properties of the OCX as if they are native. Now after installing VS2019 only Interop.XYZLib.dll is generated. Even if I go back to VS2017 the behavior is the same, only one is generated, and trying to use it causes a catastrophic failure. Any ideas what can be done?

Thank you in advance,
