> Since the installation of Office VSTO is most likely invoked via an
executable file, it would be simpler to run the whole process in batch file,
e.g. like so:
@echo off
if exist c:\installed.reg del c:\installed.reg
regedit /e c:\installed.reg
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall\{388E4B09-3E71-4649-8921-F44A3A2954A7}
if exist c:\installed.reg (
del c:\installed.reg
goto :eof
)
e:\setup.exe [this is the Office VSTO installation program]
