few client having problem playing flash file in powerpoint presentation. The error message “some controls on this presentation can’t be activated. They might not be registered on this computer”
solution
The error message you are seeing is usually related to a flash OCX file not being properly registered on your computer. You could try the following to resolve your issue:
1) Quit PowerPoint.
2) Run the following command (using Start -> Run):
regsvr32.exe “C:\WINDOWS\system32\Macromed\Flash\Flash.ocx”
Note that the exact path may vary and the command should be applied to any of the following files that exist in the noted directory:
flash.ocx
flash8.ocx
flash9.ocx

In some of the cases you may also try:
regsvr32.exe C:\WINDOWS\system32\Macromed\Flash\Flash9e.ocx
it worked out in my case

Perfect. For some reason my Powerpoint had not automatically added the Flash Object.
I manually registered the object and everything is tickety boo!

Didn’t work for me as I think my registry was corrupt. Everytime I tried to register the .ocx file it kept throwing up an error.
Here’s what I did. Removed Flash10 from Add-Remove Programs, removed all Macromedia related entries in the registry (HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE).
Rebooted & re-installed Flash10.
All good!!!
