registering a dll - "register" or "change user install"??

I just need to re-register a DLL from time-to-time when I make
changes. I've noticed that when I do so using regsvr32 (I'm an
admin), it doesn't take for all users (and of course they can't
register DLLs - access denied).

So do I need to register:
1. Using the register /system command?
2. By doing a change user /install, then change user /execute?
3. Both?

Thanks!
