Just trying to register the dll manually in a admin command prompt “Regsvr32 mydll.dll” is the issue, nothing to do with any other code. This returns to the command prompt with no messages but hangs regsvr32.

Presumably you're registering your COM objects in the Initialization section of your Delphi units. What else is happening there that might be starting other threads? I would comment out everything except the Factory.Create() methods to narrow down the source of the problem.

Could it be an issue with the registry entries specific for that user? You could run scanreg.exe and see if that reveals anything. I trust you checked the event logs and didn't see anything in there. https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/topic/description-of-the-windows-registry-checker-tool-scanreg-exe-aaae4323-daa2-8477-5a4e-2a273779fdf0 cheers, Jan -- Omiha Systems Ltd NEW ZEALAND For support please email [email protected]<mailto:[email protected]> or browse to http://support.omiha.com For urgent support please call p +64 9 950 3007 m +64 22 103 9151 _______________________________________________ NZ Borland Developers Group - Delphi mailing list Post: [email protected]<mailto:[email protected]> Admin: http://delphi.org.nz/mailman/listinfo/delphi Unsubscribe: send an email to [email protected]<mailto:[email protected]> with Subject: unsubscribe
