G Guest Mar 28, 2007 #1 i need to know how to change the settings on my uninstallshield, or to disable it completely
N Newbie Coder Mar 28, 2007 #2 Nancy, Installshield is just an old version of the Windows Installer... Its what the developers chose to use as an installer at that particular time Are you talking about disabling the uninstall applet? If so, do this: Click START Click RUN Type 'regedit' (without quotes) & click OK Navigate to: User key: HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\Uninsta ll All Users: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\Uninst all (If the UNINSTALL key above don't exist, right-click POLICIES, new KEY & type in 'uninstall' (without quotes) for the key name) Creare a new DWORD in the right pane: 'NoAddRemovePrograms' (without quotes) Double-click that entry & set it to '1' (one (without quotes)) Click OK Exit the registry editor & restart I hope this helps,

W Wesley Vogel Mar 28, 2007 #3 Installshield is just an old version of the Windows Installer... No, it is not. Installshield and Windows Installer are two different applications by two different companies. Installshield is from InstallShield Software Corporation that Macrovision purchased in 2004. http://www.macrovision.com/products/flexnet_installshield/index.shtml Windows Installer (msiexec.exe) is from Microsoft. http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa371185.aspx -- Hope this helps.
