  4. If your operating system has a 64 Bit architecture, copy the "Dircontrol.dll" library and paste it also into the "C:\Windows\sysWOW64" directory.
    NOTE! On 64 Bit systems, the dynamic link library must be in both the "sysWOW64" directory as well as the "System32" directory. In other words, you must copy the "Dircontrol.dll" library into both directories.
