Subject Minimum Client Installation on Windows Through Application
Author R. S. Patil
Dear Friends,

I would like to Copy required dlls or other files to
desired location and also do registry settings through
my client application exactly as Windows installer is doing
with minimum client installation.

Can somebody tell me what are the files to be
copied and their respective locations and also the
registry settings ? so that my client application will run
even after user has reinstalled windows.
My plan is i will check the registry key for a specific
value if its not there then application will copy the
desired files and do registry settings before it
tries to connect to database.

I have a client where we are facing frequent disk
formats and windows re installations causing us
lot of calls for FB client installation which we want to reduce

even access to windows installer building script is also
sufficient to us.

Thanks and best regards.
