What does registering a DLL mean?

0

Windows requires that you register some DLL’s because it needs to store some internal information about that specific file. Most installer programs will give you an option to register a DLL once it is copied over to the destination system. If you are in a case where you don’t have an installer you can call RegSvr32.exe. This file resides in the Windows\System directory. To use it you launch that program and pass it the path to the file you wish to register. For instance to register the file ‘C:\Example.DLL’ you would make this call: ‘RegSvr32 C:\Example.DLL’. The program should tell you if the registration was successful or not.
