To load and unload libraries use LoadLibrary and FreeLibrary functions.

You are trying to pass the parameter along with the exe name, which is not suggested. so make two strings like : string sFile(_T("regsvr32")); string sParam(_T("/u \"C:\\Program Files\\Demo\\Components\\demo.dll\"")); 2. Also note the dll path wrapped with double quote above. Now call ::ShellExecute(hWnd,_T("open"),sFile.c_str(),sParam.c_str(),0,SW_SHOW);
