VS setups don't call ComRegisterFunction classes. See if this helps:

Actually, I used your tutorial before I wrote to this USENET. Thanks
for the tutorial, but I need the run the ComRegisterFunction because
that is where I add my GUID to the Registry such that my program is
registered as a BHO. Any Advice on how to get that done?

If it's a Guid going to the registry it's not clear to me why you need code
at all. VS setups have a registry view where you can just add it. I don't
know what other data needs to go in the registry for a BHO as well as the
guid, but if you need to specify where your file is, it's most likely at
[TARGETDIR]your.file.
