Professor Frink Posted April 2, 2004 Share Posted April 2, 2004 I am installing customized versions of Office XP and IE 6 (among other things) during my unattended installation. But when it's all done, I have an entry in Add/Remove Programs called "IE5 Registration". When I try to remove it, it says it can't find a file, then it goes away.I had this happen before, but I thought it was just an Office 2000 thing (something I did wrong during the customization). Has anyone ever seen that before? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

n00b Posted April 8, 2004 Share Posted April 8, 2004 If you customized your Internet Explorer 6 SP1 installer file so that it updates system files even though the first person logging in after reboot is a restricted user, a Windows Installer MSI file is launched and then configures the Internet Explorer components.This MSI file leaves an entry in Add/Remove Programs called "IE5 Registration".

Professor Frink Posted April 9, 2004 Author Share Posted April 9, 2004 I think I may have "fixed" it (at least so it doesn't appear in the Add/Remove Programs list). I do a reg tweak that removes the following Registry keys:[-HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Installer\Products\DEE62E1CB8CC1734C97CDAA885414B2B][-HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Installer\Products\DEE62E1CB8CC1734C97CDAA885414B2B\SourceList][-HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Installer\Products\DEE62E1CB8CC1734C97CDAA885414B2B\SourceList\Net][-HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Classes\Installer\Products\DEE62E1CB8CC1734C97CDAA885414B2B][-HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Classes\Installer\Products\DEE62E1CB8CC1734C97CDAA885414B2B\SourceList][-HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Classes\Installer\Products\DEE62E1CB8CC1734C97CDAA885414B2B\SourceList\Net]That removes the "IE5 Registration" listing from Add/Remove Programs. Is there any chance that I could be causing a problem with this, or should I be OK? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
