Don't know the answer, but surely interested when you find out how. I understand you update by a complete uninstall followed by a new install. How about the other way around: first install the new version and then uninstall the old one? My experience is that in that case a registry key selected for removal on uninstall is preserved when it also belongs to the new version.
