One other thing...I CAN find my application under: HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Installer\UserData\S-1-5- 18\Products\GUID
but not under the CurrentVersion\Uninstall (where it is much easier to find based on my product code being the key). Any help anyone can offer as to why the Uninstall key wouldn't automatically get written would be awesome.
