.dll Loaded but entry-point ‘DllRegisterServer’ was not found

cygwindllentrypointnotfoundexceptwindows 7

Missing .dll file, after downloading i placed it in system32 folder then I run command regsvr32 with the name of the DLL. But it gives me an error, now the error is:

The module 'cygwin1.dll' was loaded but the entry-point 'DllRegisterServer' was not found.

Make sure that 'cygwin1.dll' or 'libstdc++-6' is a valid DLL or OCX file and then try again

Try with .ocx

for example if you want to register BIDIB.dll

definetely its contains some list of .ocx, .oca, .dll extensed files are there, that time you can register the dll with .ocx

Ex: regsvr32 BIDIB.ocx

The module “.dll” was loaded but the entry-point was not found

I had this problem and

dumpbin /exports mydll.dll

and

depends mydll.dll

showed 'DllRegisterServer'.

The problem was that there was another DLL in the system that had the same name. After renaming mydll the registration succeeded.

Trying to register a dll but getting error DllRegisterServer entry point was not found

There is a Microsoft KB article on regsvr32 that you should read. A DLL must be a COM library for it to be registered. This exposes the entry function (DllRegisterServer) noted in the error message. This might not be there is the DLL is not designed to be registered, or is "corrupt" in some way. You can find out if a function is exported using DLL Export Viewer.

It would be great if you could provide information on whether you have the source code for the DLLs and why you need to register them. If you have a plain Win32 DLL you can access functions by loading it with LoadLibrary from native code. You need to use P/Invoke from .NET code.
