Utility for removal of IE downloaded Active-X Controls
Does anyone know of sample utility code to remove Active-X
controls that are downloaded by IE.
While IE allows you to manually remove Active-X controls
in its tools menu or by going to its downloaded folder--
you cannot programetically unregister and delete the OCX's
for the controls and have them disappear from the IE
folder.
This fuctionality is needed for two following reasons:
1-We have multiple versions of the controls for
development and production systems we would like to run
from the same PCs. We need the utility to switch
environments.
2-Sometimes IE does not download new versions of the
controls and we want to delete all controls in our system
before releasing new versions--to make sure that everyone
will get the latest version of the controls.
Thanks for your support.
