    • install
    • None
    • beta3
    • generic, x86
    • generic, windows_98
    • Not verified

      Steps to reproduce: Install 1.4.0 beta3 j2re, then install 1.3.0 j2re. Uninstall the 1.4.0 beta3 j2re and it will remove the following registry keys:

      HKEY_LOCALE_MACHINE:
      software//javasoft//java runtime environment
      software//javasoft//java runtime environment//1.3
      software//javasoft//java runtime environment//1.3.0

      This also happens with the j2sdk.

      I believe this problem is specific to install shield professional edition 6.3, because it does not occur with install shield 5.1. We didn't change the method of creating these keys when upgrading to 6.3.
