I am unable to register the erwin dm DLLs: the module was loaded but the call to DllRegisterServer failed with error code 0x80070005

I am trying to register the erwin dm DLLs but MS Windows responds,

Figure 1. regsvr32.exe the module was loaded but the call to DllRegisterServer failed with error code 0x80070005

Solution:

Use an elevated command prompt to execute the same command.

1. Click the Start Button, then in the "Start Search" box type CMD but DO NOT press Enter yet.

2. In the list above, under "Programs" right-click on CMD that appears above and choose "Run as Administrator" and click "Continue".

3. In the black command line window, use the command “REGSVR32” to register the file again

e.g. for 64-bit OS erwin dm here are the API DLLs that should be registered:

c:\windows\system32\regsvr32.exe "C:\Program Files\erwin\Data Modeler r9\EAL.dll"

c:\windows\system32\regsvr32.exe "C:\Program Files\erwin\Data Modeler r9\Erxml.dll"
