Windows Forum / Windows XP / Basics / February 2007Where is installed info stored?
Hello, I installed and registered an application in my WinXP(1) drive1. Then I installed this application in another WinXP(2) installation which is installed on drive 2 without registering. When running the application from WinXP(2) on disk2 the application knows allready my during WinXP(1)/drive1 installed username and password! How is that done? Does the installation procedure search all available drives in my computer for any stored Application? Or is there some Meta storage location related to the computer itself? regards, Henk It's called the registry. Each installation would have recorded the install & because it was basically the same, it would be under the same keys. > Hello, > [quoted text clipped - 14 lines] > > Henk Why would you install the same application twice to the same computer ??? > Hello, > [quoted text clipped - 14 lines] > > Henk Well I assume it might be something like a footy tipping competition program & he wants to run 2 seperate competitions or something. Guess he has a reason? I never thought to question why tho. > Why would you install the same application twice to the same computer ??? > [quoted text clipped - 18 lines] >> >> Henk |
