put queryRegistry("HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\App
Paths\AcroRd32.exe\path")
seems to work.
Thanks for the suggestion, but that will not work in our case
In at least one actual customer instance we have - out customer is
running our app on a Microsoft Terminal Server and users get a remote
desktop access to the server to run our app. In this specific case,
REGISTRY queries get the users local registery on the CLIENT, but PATH
queries check file paths on the SERVER, so registry checks do not work
in this case.
