514614 2007-01-10 03:23:00 Hi, I am looking for an app that can tell me what is changed during an install, i.e. where files have been added, reg keys added/changed. Anyone know of one? (Win XP SP2) BakugekiNZ (9752)
514615 2007-01-10 03:29:00 I would say unless whatever u use is installed on the cd and made to run at the same time, u can't.

Since when u do a clean install, its better to reformat the hdd before u install Windows.

Well if u type regedit under run, after Windows is installed, (or a program is installed) just look under the program name, you can see what reg keys etc have been installed. Thats if you're talking about installing programs, not Windows itself.

514619 2007-01-10 05:11:00 There's a copy of freeware programs here (www.snapfiles.com) that should do what you want. I haven't tried them so I don't know if they're any good. 4bes (2848)
