  Yes, but that's what he's doing! To say that VB6STKIT.DLL
is not necessary is inaccurate and confusing. It's like answering
a question about car maintenance with bicycle care advice,
simply because you hate cars and don't want to make it any
easier for other people to use them.

  He may take the advice to use a different installer, but
the question was about VB6STKIT.DLL somehow ending up
in the 64-bit system folder *during a PDW install*, when it
shouldn't actually be getting moved, since it's a setup file
rather than a dependency.

  In setup.lst, VB6STKIT.DLL is designated to be copied
to: WinSysPathSysFile. But since it's only needed by setup,
and since setup actually runs from the Windows folder, I'm
guessing that it might work to change that line to

[Bootstrap Files]
File1=@VB6STKIT.DLL,$(WinPath)....

But I haven't actually tried it. So far I haven't had any trouble
myself installing to Win7.

  I'm still trying to figure out why Inno setup engenders the
sort of irrational devotion that one usually only sees with
Apple Seeds and sports fans.
