I'm porting an ATL control to 64-bit. The control uses the Stock Property pages (CLSID_StockFontPage, CLSID_StockColorPage) in its properties dialog.

After recompiling for x64, the Color and Font tabs are missing (because MsStkPrp.dll is 32-bit). Is there a 64-bit version of the dll or is there a better way to implement fonts and colors in an ATL ActiveX control?

    Pretty sure there is not, I certainly don't have it. ActiveX is pretty dead technology. – Hans Passant May 10 '12 at 00:29
  • Thanks. I came to the same conclusion, on both points. – Joe Zimmerman May 10 '12 at 20:42
  • It's 2022, and believe me or not, I am looking for the 64bit MsStkPrp.dll (same reason, porting 32->64bit a hybrid C++/COM/ATL/MFC/C#/.NET/... App). It looks like it does not exist, very sad that its source is not available either (so we could recompile). As color and font pages are rarely used, I think I will just remove those properties from the 64bit version. Unless I could get the source or 64bit bin. – Zoli Jul 28 '22 at 13:42

Even the 32-bits version of msstkprp.dll isn't present in Windows 10, so I copied it from my Windows XP virtual machine (%WINDIR%\System32\msstkprp.dll) to a directory. Then you can succesfully register it by starting an Administrative Prompt, change to that directory, and type

regsvr32 msstkprp.dll
