The file that is not correctly registered is called Capicom.dll. You can download and run a script to locate the component and register it. Download the file, unzip and then double-click on the extracted file (RegisterCapicom.vbs) to run it. If a dialog windows appear asking for permission to run Microsoft Windows base script host click on Yes.
If the script was not succesful, or the error persists, you can register the component manually. To do so:
- Open a command prompt with elevated privileges.
- Locate the file CAPICOM.dll.
- This is usually found in the folder c:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft CAPICOM 2.1.0.2\Lib\X86
- If it is not there, you can use Windows Search to find it.
- You can also use the command prompt to find it. Type the command:
dir /s c:\*capicom.dll
- This will search every folder in your computer for that file, and show you the name of the folder it has found it in.
- Change the active directory to the one the file is located in.
- Run the following command:
regsvr32.exe CAPICOM.dll
Déjà Vu should now start normally.
The files that must be registered are:
- Codejock.CommandBars.Unicode.v15.3.1.ocx
- Codejock.Controls.Unicode.v15.3.1.ocx
- Codejock.DockingPane.Unicode.v15.3.1.ocx
- Codejock.ReportControl.Unicode.v15.3.1.ocx
To register these files, you can download this batch file, unzip it and run it. It will run the regsvr32.exe application for each of the necessary files. You must run it as an Administrator, or else it will fail..
Déjà Vu X2 should now start normally.
This error message can appear if the files from the Visual Basic Run-time are not correctly registered. To find out how to fix this, read this article.

--> How do I "register a file"?
That is explained further down in the article.
Hi again, I just wanted to mention that on the "Technical details: .mEncryption.Init" page above, the first link doesn't work any more.
"you can open **this link** to download the Security Update for CAPICOM."
I was fortunate in that the script file worked for me.
Thank you for letting me know. It seems the download is not longer available on Microsoft's website. I have removed the link to it.
