This error may occur during installation if another program, including memory-resident and anti-virus programs, are running and using any version of the file being updated by the setup.
This error may also occur if the folder where the file is located includes a single quote or apostrophe ('). If this is the case, choose a folder that does not include the single quote to resolve the error.
In most situations, you can safely click Ignore.

Note: if you choose to handle the registraion manually, keep in mind that ActiveX EXEs can be registered using applicationame.exe /regserver. Regsvr32 will not work right with them.

The quickest fix is to remove the dll from the self register table. Often installations include DLLs for applications that are not loaded. If the DLL can't find an entry point it will not register.

In Wise Package Studio remove the rows of the affected files in the tables "SelfReg" and/or "ISSelfReg".
