User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-GB; rv:1.8.0.4) Gecko/20060508 Firefox/1.5.0.4
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-GB; rv:1.8.0.4) Gecko/20060508 Firefox/1.5.0.4

From day 1 up to and including current 1.5.0.4 I have had "Error 0: Uninstall log folder not found: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Mozilla\Mozilla Thunderbird\1.5(en-GB)\Uninstall\Uninstall Log Folder".
Set Program Access and Defaults keeps on going for ages, but gets nowhere.  Resulting in the usual frequently reported request for confirmation that Thunderbird should be default email - but for a different reason here.


Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.  From Set Program Access and Defaults, try to make Thunderbird the default email
2.
3.

Actual Results:  
Error message as shown in Details panel above

Expected Results:  
Let me set Thunderbird as default email

Win XP SP2 is on my Drive F:.  Have tried copying everything over to C:\Program Files in the hope that it might find the Uninstall Log there, but no joy
