DLL Registration during Uninstallation process
Hi
I need to register dll during uninstallation.
I am trying thru VBSript custom action in Execute Deferred.
Command line "c:\winnt\system32\regsvr32.exe c:\winnt\system32\xyz.dll"
Application is getting installed and uninstalled without any problem but the DLL is not getting registered.
Your help would be highly appreciated!!!.

Is the DLL part of the installation?
Are you sequencing the CA prior to the RemoveFiles action.
Are you not using the silent switch? as otherwise the messagebox will sit there and wait for interaction to proceed or cancel.

You will want to change the hard-coded path in your command line to use built-in properties, e.g.
[SystemFolder]REGSVR32 /S [SystemFolder]XYZ.DLL. In fact, I'd go further and say that the paths are unnecessary anyway, since SYSTEM32 ought to be in the PATH.
