 Make EXE: System error &H80004005 (-2147467259) Unspecified error

I have been developing a VB6 app for 4 years. Just this week I cannot
make an EXE file. When I try to make an EXE (from the command line or
the IDE), I get the message

System error &H80004005 (-2147467259) Unspecified error

I am using XP SP3. Another person can get the source code and create
the EXE so it is something on my system and I have no idea what. Any
suggestions?

Do you get this problem with all your VB6 apps, or with just this one
specific app? If it is just this one specific app then try rebuilding it
completely, or at the very least run through all references on all Forms etc
and delete any old references to OCXs and other things that you are not
actually using.

Are you logged on as administrator or power user?

Is the following file missing?

C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio\VB98\C2.EXE

In my copy of VB6 Enterprise + SP5, the file size is 692224 bytes.

Try using Filemon to see what happens. Enter in the filter "*VB98*" so you
only see VB related activities(anything that runs from "VB98" folder).

Another question, can you make an EXE from a new project?

...
The obvious, unrelated to VB itself--I do suppose you've tried a reboot?

And, of course, have you added anything new recently or visited any
questionable web sites, etc., etc., ... ??
