crystaldiskinfo and registry entries

HI All
I am using the current version and installed to my A drive(usb stick) and it works fine but I noticed a registry entry in shell no roam in referance to the program and the A drive,no biggie as I can remove it but is this normal?

I searched the registry and found it,just curious.I dont use the program much but I like it!
Regards
Bill

Depends on a couple of

Depends on a couple of things:

  1. What exactly (full path and values) are the registry entries you saw?
  2. Did you see them while the app was running, after the app closed badly (eg crashed), or after closing it properly?

I am assuming for now that they are just the standard kind of registry entries that Windows creates for all programs, portable or not, which are allowed under the PortableApps standard.

Hi Winter yes I ejected it

Hi Winter

yes I ejected it properly and no it did not crash-here are the 2 keys:

A:\CrystalDiskInfoPortable\App\CrystalDiskInfo\DiskInfo.exe
A:\CrystalDiskInfoPortable\CrystalDiskInfoPortable.exe
They are located in the MUICache under shellnoroam.

Oh saw them after closing the app properly....
Thanks
Bill

Not Keys

Those aren't registry keys that need to be worried about. Everything run on your system will show up in MUICache and only admin rights can be used to remove them.

Sometimes, the impossible can become possible, if you're awesome!
