Hi

This tip says to delete the registry entry HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Installer\Folders\<CABI INSTALL DIR>

 

Just to be clear, does that mean to delete all entries associated with the CABI install dir? Or just the top level entry?

 

So do I need to delete all entries under HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Installer\Folders\ that reference the CommonReporting3 directory?

 

Regards, John

Hi

Someone have already tried it? Cause when i look inside the regedit i can see a lot of entries about Business Object, and i would like to know if removing just those will not affect any new BOXI installation.
