The only way I know is to click yes, as then it will have the profiles
created, so it won't ask anymore.What sort of problems did you have with
your programs? Rather sort those out than trying to use a workaround. With
Office 2000 it asks if you want to keep the install files or delete them.
If you keep them it helps with creating new profiles.
