Are you stopping the service first? (E.g. in a cmd window)

net stop wuauserv

Some users have had to resort to a safe boot instead to allow them
to re-register that module. (A safe boot would not start the service.)

If you still can't do it even then make note of any return codes
that regsvr32 is giving you (and don't use the /s switch).

One user found it necessary to diagnose a missing dependent
module by using DependencyWalker's Profiler feature to monitor
the progress of the command. We would expect regsvr32 to
return code 0x00000002 in this case.

The best way to debug a module that fails to register is by opening
REGSVR32.EXE in Dependency Walker rather than your DLL.
