Many Windows users have recently reported getting a ‘No such interface supported’ error message while opening different apps or services. If you also get the same error message while launching different apps, here’s what you should do.
1. Scan your computer
Malicious files play with system files and app data, triggering the error message. In such a scenario, scanning your computer with a powerful security tool could be an extremely effective solution.
We recommend using Malwarebytes or Avast free antivirus to scan your system for viruses, malware, or other security threats. Once scanned, restart your computer.
2. Run the System File Checker Utility
The error message can also appear due to system file corruption. To rule out corrupted system file issues, execute the SFC command on the command prompt.
1. Type in Command Prompt in the Windows Search.
2. Right-click on the Command Prompt and select Run as administrator.
3. When the Command Prompt opens, execute this command:
sfc /scannow
4. If the command returns an error, execute this command:
DISM /Online /Cleanup-Image /RestoreHealth
3. Re-register the actxprxy.dll
A few Windows users have reported fixing the issue by re-adding the special DLL. So, here’s how you can re-register the actxprxy.dll.
1. Open the Start Menu and search for CMD. Right-click on the CMD and select Run as Administrator.
2. On the CMD, enter:
regsvr32 c:\windows\system32\actxprxy.dll
4. Fix registry errors
The ‘No such interface supported’ error message also occurs due to registry errors. So, in this method, you will have to use CCleaner to fix registry errors.
1. Download and install CCleaner on your computer. Once installed, open the app.
2. Click on the ‘Registry’ tab, which will open up the registry scanner.
3. Click ‘Scan for issues’ and wait for a few seconds until the CCleaner scans for the registry errors.
4. Click on ‘Fix selected issues’
5. System Reset
A system reset will delete all files stored on the Windows installation drive and the desktop. So, create a proper backup before you reset your system.
1. Open the search box and type in ‘System Reset’. Now, under the System reset, click on Get Started
2. You will be asked to select two options. You should choose Remove Everything.
3. Wait a few minutes until the system reset completes.
