Title
RegSvr32 Error: 'LoadLibrary ("safileup.dll") failed. GetLastError returns 0x8002801c
Problem
When reinstalling FileUp by registering the DLL using the RegSvr32 command from the command prompt:
c:\> regsvr32 safileup.dll
You may receive this error:
LoadLibrary ("safileup.dll") failed. GetLastError returns 0x8002801c

This error is caused by incorrectly set registry permissions on certain keys that are necessary for FileUp.
Solution
* Corrective action for this issue involves registry manipulation. As with any registry operation, we strongly recommend backing up your registry before proceeding *

When you run RegSvr32 on SAFileUp.DLL, the following registry keys are created:

HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\SoftArtisans.FileUp
HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\CLSID\{719B0FDC...}
HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\TypeLib\{719B0FDC...}
If, for some reason, you cannot write to these keys, you will receive the above mentioned error. To resolve the error, follow these steps:

  1. Log into your server as an Administrator
  2. Using RegEdt32, locate these keys in your registry
  3. Verify that these keys have the following permissions
    1. Administrators / Full Control
    2. System / Full Control
    3. Everyone / Read
  4. Rerun RegSvr32 for SAFileUp.DLL
