Registering a DLL with Vista

E

Extracampine

I have a .DLL file in the windows/system32 directory that I require to
register (vbscript.dll) in order to run some scripts in Mediamonkey. When I
register it using the command "regsvr32 vbscript.dll" it states successfully
registered. However, when I restart my computer, I have to register it again
to get Mediamonkey scripts to work.

Why do I have to register this DLL every time I restart windows, and is
there a fix for this? Thanks.

You shouldn't have to keep re-registering vbscript.dll. Try using Command
Prompt (not Run), by right-clicking on the Command Prompt shortcut, and
choosing Run as Administrator, to run the command.

Yup, good idea. Sometimes commands have to be done "Run as administrator"
mode in order for them to 'stick'. Vista protects the system otherwise.

Thanks guys, but thats what I did initially - run as administrator. I still
have to re-register it every time I restart Windows for it to work with my
program.

If all else fails, you could always use a user logon script.
