Product install without registry key creation
Hi,
I have built a product installer using InstallAnywhere. Every time I install it, it will create a registry for the product.
I am wondering if it's possible NOT to do that since I only need a temporary folder for the installation and doesn't want to create any registry entries.
If this is not possible, is it possible to uninstall the product before each install.
Thanks.

set $REGISTER_UNINSTALLER_WINDOWS$ to false will prevent registry key creation.
From doc:
This variable tells the uninstaller if it should register itself with Windows Add/Remove Programs.
Set to FALSE to not have the uninstaller register.
