    A VB app by default writes it's settings to HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\VB and VBA Program Settings\[App-Name]. Apps distributed by the package and deployment wizard do not clear this down on an uninstall. Is there a way of appending a routine to the package and deployment wizard so that the registry entry for the application is deleted on uninstall ????

    If you know what needs installing & therefore uninstalling (I think this includes the registry) then you can right a custom install/uninstall app. I'm pretty sure that all the necessary code for registery messing is in VB-WORLD.
