C:\Windows\Temp\Msftqws.pdw\$(DllSelfRegisterEx) could not be registered because it was not found

If you find this error while installing leagacy system built on VB 6.0 then you just need to go to setup.lst find DllSelfRegisterEx and replace it with DllSelfRegister and offcourse save it and then  run the installation wizard again.

Here is the process explained in steps

First you need to find a file name setup.lst in the package and deployment folder that you have created.

Then open the setup.lst file in notepad.

Replace all instances of DllSelfRegisterEx with DllSelfRegister

Save the setup.lst

Run the installation wizard again.

Hope that helps
