问题
I try to register dll (ActiveX) for non-admin user using MSI. To create registry settings I have register the dll in admin mode, then exported the relevant registry entries and renamed all HKLM to HKCU.
When I install it for non-admin user all works fine. But when I use the same settings with admin user, there is a problem of discovering TypeLib.
What should be changed in the registry entries to work both for admin and non-admin user, when the registration done under HKCU?
Thank you

If your entries are really registered under HKCU, it will work. What MSI installer are you using? There should be a way to specify that it should install in user mode.
Are you letting the dll self-register or having the msi register the dll? it is best practice to have the MSI do it, but it's more of a pain. If you're having the .dll self-register you need to make sure that the dll registers in HKEY_CURRENT_USER and not HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE, which ATL does by default.
If you built it in VS2008 with ATL, you'll want to add:
AtlSetPerUserRegistration(true);
to your DllRegisterServer and DllUnregisterServer.
Anyway, those are some things to look for. You can use Process Monitor and watch the Reg commands to see exactly what is happening; something somewhere is writing to HKLM.
