The problem - ActiveX components tend to increase in number over time and this slows down the computer, and clutter the computer registry. This is often happening as a result of one or several ActiveX components not functioning as intended.

By default ActiveX components use the browser's security settings, for instance, Internet Explorer protects the user from running any ActiveX components by default and relevant settings can be tailored to the user's preferred security needs. Experience shows that maintaining the default settings is the better option.

ActiveX components can slow down your computer - One of the reasons for the computer to slow down is the number of entries getting updated in the windows registry from various ActiveX codes. This results in errors while browsing the Internet, as similar ActiveX components might be present in the registry causing disorder. If you are facing this problem, you may need to seek professional help to repair ActiveX entries in the system registry, alternatively you could try to fix the problem yourself either manually (not recommended) or with a registry repair software, which is the method we recommend.

Some viruses also present themselves as ActiveX - It has been seen that ActiveX problems arise due to computer viruses. Hence having a strong anti-virus software can help protect the computer from such attacks.

Warning! - Before you attempt a repair of ActiveX components you should. Take a backup of the system registry before editing the registry, this is usually a (standard step if you are using a registry repair software).

Options to repair ActiveX

Manual method -  Cleaning up the windows registry from unwanted ActiveX components is necessary. Doing this manually is possible in theory yet unlikely to succeed in practice: The problem is that you need to be familiar with the structure and content of the registry and it is actually too easy to delete the wrong entry which can make matters worse.

Registry tools - A better way to repair ActiveX controls is to use registry repair tools. Registry repair tools are software programs specifically designed to fix registry problems. This helps in both identifying unused ActiveX component entries by scanning the system registry then cleaning or repairing these entries. Relying on these tools is much safer than any manual method and this method always gives better results.
