Our installer copies some files which the user can amend/delete etc into my documents. In XP this is fine, however, under vista, if they are deleted, it calls the on-demand installer if an associated file type is then double clicked to run the software.
I notice that in HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\[company].[product].[extension]\shell\&Open\command there is a multi string value called command (containing in this case %d!y+{.p7=XiU_v$&N[N>Q'mAT$?='?i]Hs%HU.z` "%1") which if I delete stops this happening and the program launches correctly.
I assume the different behaviour in Xp/Vista is because of the different versions of windows installer. However, can I stop this behaviour happening altogether?
Thanks!
