Mark,

Is it under Windows XP, and of course, I deleted the registry key maked 
by the administrator.

The registry key :
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall\
Already exist in the Windows registry. (under this key are stored all 
uninstall informations).

I think that this is a bug of runrev, I will try to see if I can do a VB 
or COM file for set this registry key (with Regedit, I can make it), and 
if I can make this key with a VB or COM file, I will report it in the 
quality center.

Regards,

Damien
