How do I properly instantiate 32-bit COM objects in classic ASP after installing Windows Update KB4340558?
On Windows Server 2012 R2, after installing update KB4340558 (update history) / KB4338424 (installed updates) we can no longer instantiate .NET .DLLs (interop) in classic ASP in 32-bit mode using server.createobject . We receive the error 0x800A01AD "ActiveX component can't create object" When we uninstall the update, the error disappears. Despite my best efforts, I was unable to find an alternate solution to uninstalling. We would prefer to reinstall the update and make whatever changes were necessary to Windows Server and/or the DLL's to allow the COM objects to be instantiated properly.
