On a 64-bit version of a Windows operating system, there are two versions of the Regsv32.exe file:

The 64-bit version is %systemroot%\System32\regsvr32.exe.
The 32-bit version is %systemroot%\SysWoW64\regsvr32.exe.

Can you plz clarify which one you are using.

Hi,

on Command Prompt type,

C:\>cd "Windows\System32"
C:\Windows\System32>Regsvr32 dllname [If you are trying to register 32bit dll].

C:\>cd "Windows\SysWow64"
C:\Windows\SysWow64>Regsvr32 dllname[If you are trying to register 64bit dll].

Cheers

hi,
not sure but i think you need to run this command prompt as "Administrator" in case it does not work and try this solution.
