[wpkg-users] Registry change during boot and roaming profiles

  Yeah thanks, that solved the problem with the Firefox package under 
W2K for me.

I found a "newer" ;-) version, 2.4.2, under 
http://www.grossmatten.ch/share-freeware/Microsoft/SysInternals/PsTools%202.42/PsTools/


But what can I do when I have to set registry keys during delayed logon 
with roaming profiles?
In my opinion they are always restored from the roaming profile during 
login when they first have been deleted by the uninstall cmd during 
delayed logon. Or am I wrong?


Mit freundlichen Grüßen
