Re: Quick Start Modifies Registry
Hi Andy,
This problem happened on PC with freshly installed Windows XP SP3 when trying to install an application with recently purchased Express InstalWare, not entering anything to the Registry menu. It can be worked around by running InstalWare with Source Key HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\.exe defined on Target Keys as (ab Source Data) exefile
(ab Content Type Source Data) application/x-msdownload
Best Wishes,
David

Did you choose to create a file association? Can you provide a screenshot of the [erroneous] setup or configuration you provided?
