I've got the same issue with bad registration of some common components installed on syswow64, among them the mscomctl.ocx. After searching for and not found a solution, I derived one that solved the problem. So, the only way to solve was:

  1. Unregister the mscomctl.ocx (with elevated privilegies)
  2. Disabled the Internet Explorer (version 10 in my case)
  3. Reboot the system
  4. Register the mscomctl.ocx (Always elevated)
  5. Enabled IE10 again

It seems to be IE10 the problem. Since I disabled it, I could finally correctely register the common controls.

I hope (despite my bad english) help someone who is facing the same problem.
