Sony,
AFAIK, the Setup Wizard does not add anything to the registry automatically. Neither do third-party installers like InstallShield or Wise. You have to program that into the setup script. Another way would be to write the information to an INI file in the Windows direcotry, but again, that is something you have to do yourself.

But it the user selects to install under F:\HISAPP, how can I know later (even thru a different program) that MyApp.exe is available under F:\HISAPP? (Is there any Registry updates after the install?)
