e.g. Win32 key will have 2 (Default) values.

Either your RGS or your setup project are incorrectly written. You end
up with two distinct values - a default (unnamed) value, and a named
value whose name is, literally, "(Default)". It just so happens that
Regedit displays the unnamed value as (Default) - but it's just an
artifact of the tool, not representative of how the value is actually
stored in the registry.

Figure out how the value named "(Default)" is produced - it's wrong, it
will not be used by the system anyway.

Also, which settings in VC++ settings editor register a dll after
building it ?

With sufficient thrust, pigs fly just fine. However, this is not
necessarily a good idea. It is hard to be sure where they are going to
land, and it could be dangerous sitting under them as they fly
overhead. -- RFC 1925
