XnView Software

<Moderator's note: This topic has been split from another topic>

When I use the install program, I get this error:
"C:\Program Files\XnView\ShellEx\XnViewShellExt.dll
Unable to register the DLL/OCX: DllRegisterServer failed; code 0x80040154"

A manual regsitration gives the same error.
I use the search function and I didn't get anything relevant.
Thanx

No, maybe xnview, old ShellEx, or explorer/file manager opened?

Using another shell extension (MatroskaShellExt), I know I have to be careful and no app, especially explorer, was opened. I tried a registry clean-up but it didn't work either. (WinXp Sp2 up-to-date)

Strange.

Pierre, will the Final version of XnView Shell Extension 1.4.0.0 be available at the same time as XnView 1.82 Final?

I've found that the missing dll is efsadu.dll, a microsoft encryption dll which is part of Windows XP Professional but not XP Home Edition. The default location is c:\windows\system32\dllcache\efsadu.dll
Why do you need this dll for XnViewShellExt.dll?
Is it possible to get a XnViewShellExt.dll version without dependancy to efsadu.dll?
Thanx.

I don't know, i don't use efsadu, so maybe the shell.dll

I have checked on Windows 2000, there is no dependency with efsadu.dll, so it works. Tonight I'm going to check on my own PC [XP home edition].

I downloaded this dll, but this didn't work.
I resumed my search and found the solution: register atl.dll, which is located in %systemroot%\system32

you meant shell32.dll?, and yes

I have tried to install XnView "XnView-win-full.exe"
> version 1.8.2.1

I have the same message with XnViewShellExt.dll : unable to register the Dll/OCX: dllregisterserver failed; error code 0x8007007E

Pierre say me to install XnView without Shell extension.
Any other idea ?
