    Re: install application without writing to the registry

    When ever you install any kind of application then installation choices are written to the registry. Normally Windows requires knowledge of what programs are installed so some of that information is recorded in the registry on installation if the program uses the Windows Installer technology (MSI), check here for more information - http://support.microsoft.com/kb/310598.

    And you can dual boot as many operating system as you can on your pc, but you cant use 2 operating at the same time.

    Actually we can't skip the registry installation..as it take some space on each installation for most of the programs.

    For dual boot two os at a same time..try Virutal PC software which is free for Windows and Virtualbox for Linux( ubuntu )..you have the steps on how to use in youtube. It's really easy but it take some time to get use to it..

    Apart from this.. I don't think you can't boot two os at a same time..can we?

    Actually, the registry is kind of a binary database which is used to store Windows configuration information. Since its built into Windows, it is available to all programs and as it is used internally by the Windows OS, its very very performant.

    bond19 is right! If you thou shalt seek the answer to a question on YouTube - you will find it. And even more! Also, look for virtual applications!
    As for the two operating systems ...on YouTube I saw a program that allows a quick change between them. Good luck

    Guys, thanks for the help! I knew how to do it. The two systems can not be used at the same time (. But I can quickly switch between the systems, if one of them is virtual. Virtualbox - for virtualization operating system
