If your server or container allows\r\nlinking to its embedded objects, you need to register a CLSID for each supported class of objects.\r\nRegistry Key\r\nHKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\\SOFTWARE\\Classes\\CLSID\\{CLSID}\r\nRegistry key Description\r\nAppID Associates an AppID with a CLSID.\r\nAutoConvertTo\r\nSpecifies the automatic conversion of a given class of objects to a new class\r\nof objects.\r\nAutoTreatAs Automatically sets the CLSID for the TreatAs key to the specified value.\r\nAuxUserType Specifies an application's short display name and application names.\r\nControl Identifies an object as an ActiveX Control.\r\nConversion\r\nUsed by the Convert dialog box to determine the formats an application can\r\nread and write.\r\nDataFormats Specifies the default and main data formats supported by an application.\r\nDefaultIcon Provides default icon information for iconic presentations of objects.\r\nInprocHandler Specifies whether an application uses a custom handler.\r\nInprocHandler32 Specifies whether an application uses a custom handler.\r\nInprocServer Specifies the path to the in-process server DLL.\r\nInprocServer32\r\nRegisters a 32-bit in-process server and specifies the threading model of the\r\napartment the server can run in.\r\nInsertable\r\nIndicates that objects of this class should appear in the Insert Object dialog\r\nbox list box when used by COM container applications.\r\nInterface\r\nAn optional entry that specifies all interface IDs (IIDs) supported by the\r\nassociated class.\r\nhttps://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/win32/com/clsid-key-hklm\r\nPage 1 of 2\n\nRegistry key Description\r\nLocalServer Specifies the full path to a 16-bit local server application.\r\nLocalServer32 Specifies the full path to a 32-bit local server application.\r\nMiscStatus Specifies how to create and display an object.\r\nProgID Associates a ProgID with a CLSID.\r\nToolBoxBitmap32\r\nIdentifies the module name and resource ID for a 16 x 16 bitmap to use for\r\nthe face of a toolbar or toolbox button.\r\nTreatAs Specifies the CLSID of a class that can emulate the current class.\r\nVerb Specifies the verbs to be registered for an application.\r\nVersion Specifies the version number of the control.\r\nVersionIndependentProgID\r\nAssociates a ProgID with a CLSID. This value is used to determine the latest\r\nversion of an object application.\r\nRemarks\r\nThe HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\\SOFTWARE\\Classes key corresponds to the HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\r\nkey, which was retained for compatibility with earlier versions of COM.\r\nThe CLSID key contains information used by the default COM handler to return information about a class when it\r\nis in the running state.\r\nTo obtain a CLSID for your application, you can use the Uuidgen.exe, or use the CoCreateGuid function.\r\nThe CLSID is a 128-bit number, in hex, within a pair of curly braces.\r\nRelated topics\r\nCoCreateGuid\r\nSource: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/win32/com/clsid-key-hklm\r\nhttps://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/win32/com/clsid-key-hklm\r\nPage 2 of 2",
