Using Visual Studio 2005 I have VB project that produces a program that is
to be deployed using a VS2005 deployment project. There are some legacy COM
components that need to be registered with Windows.
Everything works jus fine under XP, including the COM components
self-registration. But when the deployment msi or setup.exe are run under
Vista (Business Ed), the self-registration fails with an Authorities error -
even when I hae the UAC turned off.
I can manually register the COM component after the installation fails, but
that's not a very elegant way to introduce a new user to the product -
having the installation fail and requiring them to perform as separate
manual step.
Is there any way to get a VS2005 deployment project to register a COM
component when run under Vista?
Thanks in advance,
Geoff
