Register HVPcontrol

Register HVPcontrol registers the HVP ActiveX control for HyperView Player.

Note: You must run Register HVPcontrol as an administrator.
  • Start Register HVPcontrol in Windows.
    1. Click Start > Altair 2024.1 > Tools.
    2. Right-click on Register HVPControl 2024.1 and select Run as administrator.
    A message is displayed stating that the registration was successful.
  • Manually switch to a previous or newer version of HVP ActiveX control.
    1. Using your file browser, locate HVPControl.dll, which is usually found at C:\Program Files\Altair\<version>\hwdesktop\hw\bin\win64.
      Windows has a program called regsvr32 that is used to register controls. The HVP control is a 32-bit library so you would use the same regsvr32 program to register on a win64 machine.
    2. Go to Start > Run and enter regsvr32 followed by the path and name of the control you want to register.
      Place the path in quotations. For example, to register the HVPControl.dll enter:

      regsvr32 "C:\Program Files\Altair\<version>\hwdesktop\hw\bin\win64\HVPControl.dll"

    3. Click OK.
      A message is displayed stating that the registration was successful.
    4. Click OK.
    5. To view a list of options for the regsvr32 program enter only regsvr32 in the run box and click OK.
      A list of options is displayed.
