Thank you for your question.
I cannot reproduce this issue on my side. However, you can have a try to select this ActiveX control from:
[RELATED HDD]\Program Files\Common Files\Autodesk Shared\DWF Common\AdView.dll
Please let me know if you have any further questions.

Hi Rick,
In 64 bit system, with setting targeting x86 platform for your solution, you can make your application work with Autodesk DWF Viewer control.
Please let me know if I can be of any further assistance.
