Greetings:

I have been trying to install a QuickBooks Plugin and receive the 80040154 error. I pulled the info related to the CSLID to find the complaining file from a W10Pro (being decommissioned) which has the file registered and installed correctly. No such entry in the registry for the W11Pro. I tried to register the file using both regsrv32 in both system32 and wow6432, but neither found the file even though I executed the commands in the directory where the file is located. I have executed sfc and DISM with no errors returned.

Neither Intuit nor the vendor of the plugin had any suggestions. However, I am not the only one with this issue.

Since I know the keys exist on the W10Pro, can I extract those keys by dll name or CSLID and Import them into the W11Pro and expect different results? Or am I just dreaming that this could be the solution?

Suggestions?

Thanks!
Roy

Did you provide the file name to regsvr32? The command is regsvr32 dllfile.
If you don't provide the file it won't work

Since I was writing this while answering phone calls, I made a few mistakes. So this might clarify a few things. CSLID should be CLSID. I do this as often as I type "result" as "reslut" which is always entertaining.
  1. All commands were issued in an elevated command terminal as admin. SFC, DISM, etc.
  2. As stated, this program works in Win10Pro, same versions of QuickBooks Desktop on both computers. Searching the registry on the Win10 provided the clue as to what was the unregistered dll.
  3. This is a 32 bit dll in a 64 bit program.
  4. C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Intuit\QuickBooks>%SystemRoot%\SysWOW64\regsvr32 qbfc7.dll failed.
  5. So I tried C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Intuit\QuickBooks>%systemroot%\System32\regsvr32 qbfc7.dll which also failed.
If I am doing or not doing something in my attempts, please let me know.

Thanks!

Thanks. Yes, see my clarification. Apparently I was addressing this as you were.

Without knowing what you're trying to install I can't really offer any more advice. If it's looking for something specific on the system you can use procmon to try and identified what and where it's looking for said missing file/reg/other

This is a payment gateway plugin for accepting credit cards and syncing with the merchant and entering transactions in the QB Company File. Providing a link for the files.

Thanks for the procmon recommendation. Downloaded and will be used.
