The only way that make sense to me is too search entire hd . Or search , once found it , store it in the registry so next time you read the path from reg .Quote:

Havnt looked at link yet but
If you use MSI Registry and add a key and then as value put [ProgramFilesFolder][Manufacturer]\[ProductName]
It automatically gets the installed folder chosen in MSI
problem solved
