DllRegisterServer entry point was not found

[ianwin]

I have been trying to register several dll files on a PC in the windows\system32 folder however when i use regsvr32 I get the error dll was loaded, but the DllRegisterServer entry point was not found the file could not be registered.

I have successfully registered the same file on other PC's in the same location without any problems, has anyone else experienced this issue or know how to fix this.

Thanks in advance

Regsvr32.exe and Dependencies.

RegSvr32.exe depends on the Kernel32.dll, User32.dll, and Ole32.dll files (and the Msvcrt.dll and Advapi32.dll files in Windows NT). Regsvr32.exe loads the file you are trying to register or un-register, along with all of its dependencies. The process may be unsuccessful if a required file is missing or damaged.

You can use Depends.exe to determine dependencies for the file you are trying to register or un-register. Several links to Depends.exe are at the bottom of this linked thread.

Thanks for the info. I have run dependancy walker on this file and all looks ok, I have also been able to register other dll files ok on the same PC and therefore I don't think this is an issue with REGSVR32 is there any other reason for this error appearing?

Have you tried replacing the Dll file itself?

A semi-similar story here, but they ended up fixing the problem with a repair install.
