I have written a simple activex control in c# and created its .msi installer and packaged it in .cab file. when i runs the .msi installer by manually, it installs the activex control and works fine from browser. but when browser prompts for automatic installation, it does not gets installed.

I am using windows server 2008 64 bit and IE 11.

RegisterServer=yes
clsid={1FC0D50A-4803-4f97-94FB-2F41717F558D}

看看this问题和我的回答。它应该是你正在寻找的。

我使用msiexec来安装activex但不是直接但是通过我自己的runmsi.exe文件。后来我对这种方法做了一些修改。我从msi安装程序转到exe（安静安装），我现在直接引用exe安装程序（以下代码片段未经过测试但应该可以正常工作）

[version]
signature="$CHICAGO$"
AdvancedINF=2.0
[Deployment]
InstallScope=user|machine
[Setup Hooks]
install=install
[install]
run="""%EXTRACT_DIR%\simpleactivex.exe"""

你仍然需要制作出租车并签署一切 - activex，exe安装程序，cab文件。签名时使用时间戳，如我的答案所示。可以找到空闲时间戳权限列表here。
