I never look in the Registry. What do you want to do with that information. A typical installation would show, on the hard drive, this path: C:\Program Files\Netscape\Netscape Browser\netscape.exe

For the most part, that's the simplest way to do it. Your other option would be to right-click a shortcut and see where it's pointing to.

Alternatively, to simplify the process of reading the Registry, you can rig a script to read you the value of that registry key. Open up Notepad and copy the following into it:

how can I detect Netscape8.1 is set as defaul broswer and get full path of the broswer?
