This is exasperating. I have used regwrite to enable MSCOMM32 on other machines including Vista and Windows 7. A new laptop showed up and regwrite doesn't change the compatibility flag value. Using Shell and calling a .cmd file that calls a .reg file doesn't work either.
Running either the CMD file or REG file manually does work. Programmatically trying to change the value is a nogo.
Is there a setting somewhere that needs to be changed? Disabling UAC doesn't help. I have administrative rights. Excel issue? IE? Windows?
