Does Visual Pinball edit the registry when installed?
« on: February 15, 2006, 10:36:43 pm »
I was wondering whether I could install Visual Pinball and then copy everything to a DVD, then go to a new computer and paste all files/directories from the DVD and have Visual Pinball work.

or

must I "install" the Visual Pinball application on the new computer and then paste all files/directories from the DVD and have Visual Pinball work?

Visual pinball modifies the registery to associate itself with vpt files and to add the "play" option to the context menu. 

Vp MUST be installed to work properly.
