The computers can encounter many errors and one such error is runtime error 13, which mainly occurs with programs created in Visual Basic. The runtime error 13 gives the message “Type Mismatch”. This is a common error and can be corrected in no time with some simple steps.
When you come across the error “Type Mismatch”, the first thing you have to do is to update Windows. Once you have updated the Windows, you should have to repair “AllowOMwithUI” settings in the registry. This repair is needed as it allows the computer to read all the files. You can do this repair manually or by using a registry repair software. You can go to “RegEdit.exe” tool and do the repair manually.
