Yes. Do not be surprised at error messages
later (assuming this installation wrote some
file calls into your registry.) IIf you are apprehensive
about this, and if you installed the app less than
five days ago you can reload the old registry
via DOS boot and
SCANREG /RESTORE
and pick the date you want.
Unless you are 99 per cent sure this malfunction
was unintentional, better check your system for
trojans, viruses and other penetrationware.
