I just need to re-register a DLL from time-to-time when I make
changes. I've noticed that when I do so using regsvr32 (I'm an
admin), it doesn't take for all users (and of course they can't
register DLLs - access denied).

So do I need to register:
1. Using the register /system command?
2. By doing a change user /install, then change user /execute?
3. Both?

Thanks!
 
Best to do this when no other sessions are active
change logon /disable
Change user /install
regsvr32 /i filename
change user /execute
change logon /enable

Thanks Patrick, but no dice. So now I can say I've tried just about
everything, but users are still getting DLL errors. If I make them
admins and have them run regsvr32, it fixes it. But I can't believe
I'd have to do that for ALL users.

Any more ideas - bounce the box, change the way I'm compiling?

Thanks for your help.
