Subject: [ruby-core:104876] [Ruby master Bug#16116] ruby2.6.3(x86/x64) use win32ole could not new Object, return 0x80070057

Issue #16116 has been updated by krolchatina (Dmitry Kirillov).

File ClassLibraryForRuby.zip added

I have the same issue with Ruby 3.0.2 and .NET COM assemblies.  The problem seems to be related to how the assembly is registered: If InprocServer32/Default contains the full path to mscoree.dll (C:\Windows\system32\mscoree.dll) there is no problem with WIN32OLE.new 
If InprocServer32/Default contains only mscoree.dll (which seems to be the default nowadays), WIN32OLE.new fails with "HRESULT error code:0x80070057 / The parameter is incorrect."

I created a small assembly that demonstrates the problem. The assembly can be built using "dotnet build"  command.

I build a RubyTest.dll by C#, In ruby2.2, I could use WIN32OLE.new to create ole object, but in the same system under ruby2.6.3, it failed to create ole object by WIN32OLE.new, is there any different between ruby 2.2 and ruby 2.6.3 in WIN32OLE?

OS: Win7 Profressional SP1 64bit
