How Win 98 installs Software (W98)

[glomedia]

Is there any utility out there that shows what files were placed where after one installs new software? (And likewise, what was taken out when one removes software.) OR does the Add/Remove Software Control Panel provide a log like this?

Also, is there a tutorial that explains the purpose of the various system files in Win 98?

There's a utility called InCtrl5 that monitors software installation and allows you to determine the files that are added, modified and the registry changes.

You can download it from here:
