VB Print calls to .HTM registry keys fail

VB 6 Application.  Print a report option.  Click 'Print'.  This should call up, or at least this is the part I am focused on as the possible issue, Internet Explorer to view the Report.
Working system calls shdocvw.dll and then .htm registry keys.

Instead this is what is called - on a non-working pc.  No shdocvw.dll is called and .ht~ registry keys are attempted to be opened with no success as they are invalid..  What / Where / How would be referencing/calling these locations?  I
