Hi,
I see here two other options:
1. You make Repair button unavailable and make available only Change button
on Add\Remove programs pane and include dialog asking user/password again.
This will prevent from deleting credentials if the user presses Repair
button but the problem still persists if Repair process is started
automatically.
2. You can make component as Transitive and then based on the condition it
is not reinstalled during Repair. In this case you will never be able to
repair AppPool properties unless you populate new component in Patch or by
Major Upgrade.
I use the second way in most cases - thus I have complete influence on what
is going in installation.
Saving passwords in registry (even encrypted) is not allowed by our
customers.
