An application using .NET technology doesn't use the registry it uses the
..NetFramework.
There are no shared components like DLL(s) and whatnot that must be placed
in other directories like in the past for the application to execute as
they are kept in the directory with the .Net program/application.
Basically,.NET Windows applications are separate entities to themselves and
everything is provided for them through the .NetFramework.
So, it's not going to affect non .Net programs or even other .Net
applications that may be running on the machine.
