No, HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Windows CE Services\AppMgr\Apps\<appname> is no
good.
That has to be in HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall.
You might have a bunch of GUIDs entries at this location. One of them might
be your application.
Look inside to find out which one is it. If you're using MSI, GUID would be
a Product Code.
Best regards,
Ilya
