I made registry snapshots before and after installing NS version 3.12
with ConfigSafe Complete Recovery 4.0. Examination of the keys that NS
uses shows no compelling reason to do that with this version. As I'm
very likely the only person on this list who's written an entire book on
the NT registry I think I can say that with some authority;-)
If I recall correctly prior NS versions prompted users to uninstall
earlier versions. However, this version no longer does that so it's just
a waste of time. I was able to use NS 3.12 immediately after running
setup without any problems at all. If it makes anyone feel better then
go ahead and run regsweep. It won't hurt anything.
