Upon installation, Hugin registers its file type (.pto). I found references in 3 places: - hkey_classes_root - hkey_local_machine\software\classes - hkey_current_user\software\classes
The first and the second are system-wide and thus require elevation or administrative rights to add/modify. The last option does not require this. Why are the references found in 3 places? Besides the file type registration, Hugin stores its settings in hkey_current_user\software\hugin. This does not require special rights, but prevents Hugin to run entirely portable (e.g., without leaving traces or even depending on registry-based settings). If the settings could be moved to a .ini-file, and file associations are abandoned, I guess Hugin could run from a stick. This could be added as an option during installing for versions to come, but currently, it does not work like that unfortunately. -- Bart --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "hugin and other free panoramic software" group.
