How do i install mscomm32.ocx on vb6?

I am trying to code for a serial port using a usb-rs232 and when I try to install mscomm32.ocx on the references of VB6 there is an error:

Name conflicts with existing module, project or object library

I cannot locate the file in conflict.

Thank you for any help.

    You can either add it as a Component (so it appears in the tool box & can be hosted in a form) or add it as a Reference, but you can't do both & will get that error if you try. – Alex K. Jan 23 '19 at 12:10
