Re: Shortcut launches install and program???

Tech-Archive recommends: Fix windows errors by optimizing your registry

Not really - there are multiple paths into repair, including the case you

Phil:

You're a genius! I WAS removing a file (one that I wrote to launch
another
install as a custom action). It is a self-deleting executable. Is there
a
way to indicate that this file should not be checked?

It looks like it's going into repair mode. Did you remove any files after
you installed the product?
