Do the other two OCX files register correctly? If not, then there is likely a path issue - it's most likely that the files are not copied to the correct directly for your windows installation (the correct location varies from version to version).
None of the .OCX files work, similar message given in advanced command prompt.

I'm reticent to delve into the registry, since I'm way in above my head here.

It's a shame I can't use my desktop PC in the X5, since everything loads onto it. I tried to do just that, using the laptop as remote input, by trying out the remote desktop app from Chrome (Microsoft wouldn't let me load their Windows version), but it got stuck in a sort of feedback loop, so I uninstalled that app.

It seems that my Windows 11 upgrade isn't downgradeable back to "Win 10 Home S" that it came with, so I'm stuck.
