Using the Windows command prompt to register / unregister DLLs using regsvr32 isn't much fun. These steps will allow you to do this from Windows Explorer: Create a shortcut to regsvr32.exe and place it in your SendTo folder (e. g., C:\Documents and Settings\Administrator\Send... Create a similar shortcut in SendTo and add -u to the end of Target: The shortcuts will appear on your SendTo menu, just point at a DLL / OCX and Sent To register or unregister!

Most developers instruct Visual Studio to make local copies of DLLs. Whenever Visual Studio can detect a dependency between an executable and a DLL, it will copy the DLL into the directory where the executable is written. But Visual Studio can’t always see the dependencies. The typical solution for this situation is to do the copy by some other means. If the copy gets forgotten, you’ll usually find out at runtime when the CLR throws an exception because it can’t locate the DLL....
