Hi,

I installed Outlook :

Microsoft Outlook Version 1.2023.1129.100 (Production). Client Version is 20231201002.05 .

But, this registry key is missing:

HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\outlook.application

When I try to create an outlook object in VBA, it gives me this error : ActiveX component can't create object

Error in this line: Set objOL = CreateObject("outlook.Application")

Any help? Thanks

Rachid

    Hello Rachid,

    I will be happy to help you with your question, I am a Microsoft consumer and Independent Advisors who cannot access accounts.

    Kindly confirm if this is happening on a 32-bit version of Office and a 64-bit version of Windows, the keypath is HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Wow6432Node\Interface{000C0339-0000-0000-C000-000000000046}.

    However, if the issue still persist, kindly perform Office repair from the control panel https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/office/repair-an-office-application-7821d4b6-7c1d-4205-aa0e-a6b40c5bb88b

    I hope this helps!.
