ALLUSERS being ignored; can't get a per-user installation
My installation needs to be *always* per-user.
I removed use of ISSetAllUsers; I don't show the CustomerInformation dialog; in Property Manager I've set ALLUSERS to an empty string (I've also tried removing it from property manager, no change).
But when I test the installer, I always end up with the uninstallation information in HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall instead of HKEY_CURRENT_USER.
Why? What am I doing (or not doing) wrong?
Thanks!

If you have not, please refer to ALLUSERS property. You will also want to verify value of ALLUSERS property in installation log.

Thanks for the quick response.
As mentioned, I am aware of the role ALLUSERS is supposed to have; I'm setting it to "" (or even removing it from property manager).
I have run a verbose log, and I found no mention at all about ALLUSERS...
