REGSVR32(1)

📦 version 6.0, in ubuntu jammy

💖 NAME 💖

regsvr32 — the Wine DLL Registration Server, aka your new bestie for making DLLs behave 💅

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

regsvr32 [/u] [/s] [/n] [/i[:cmdline]] dllname

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

okay so, regsvr32 is the Wine dll registration server, and the whole point of it is that it's designed to be compatible with its Microsoft Windows counterpart. like, it shows up to the group chat wearing the exact same outfit, no cap. 🫶

by default — and this is the main character behaviour right here — it will register the given dll. that's it, that's the default. slay. ✨

🎀 COMMANDS 🎀

  • /u — unregister the specified dll. it's the reverse uno card of registration 🔄
  • /s — run regsvr32 silently, meaning it will not show any GUI dialogs. no popups, no little boxes, just vibes 🤫
  • /i — call DllInstall, passing it an optional cmdline. and when you use it together with /u, it calls DllUninstall instead. iykyk 💅
  • /n — do not call DllRegisterServer. heads up bestie, this option must be used with /i. it's a package deal, fr fr 👑

😭 BUGS 😭

found a bug? not me getting a bug report 😭 — bugs can be reported on the Wine bug tracker. go tell them, they'll wanna know 🐛
