Cakewalk install error


Raja Bhat

Recommended Posts

Hello, all of a sudden I can't run or install Cakewalk! I have Windows 11 installed with the latest updates but hadn't used this laptop in a few weeks.  I get an error:

C:\Program Files\Cakewalk\Shared DXi\GroovePlayer\GroovePlayer.dll

Unable to register the DLL/OCX:RegSvr32 failed with exit code 0x3.

Would be so appreciative of any help!!! The latest Win 11 doesn't have Groove Player, only the latest Media Player which I understand has replaced Groove Player.

Grooveplayer was part of SONAR (possibly also CbB and/or newer versions of Sonar), not part of Windows.

If you need Grooveplayer, and if it's not installed as part of the version of Sonar or CbB your'e installing, then you'd have to install it from your older version.

 

If you don't need GP then you can look in the given location for it and unregister it, so that it isn't being looked for by anything.   

The unregistering process varies depending on your system and the file you're unregistering, so I don't have exact directions for you, but there have been posts here and elsewhere on the internet about this over the years.
