But both apps change the same registry keyes: for folder and sh5.exe).

trying to remember the exact location, urgh...

edit: It's in local_machine >>> Ubisoft >>> Silent Hunter 5 >>> GameUpdater
I think that is it or close enough.
I checked my registry and the only key that specifies a path to SH5 is this one (I have 64bit Win7):
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\Ubisoft\Si lent Hunter 5\GameUpdate with one value being installdir pointing to the install path for SH5.

If you are changing this and Uplay isn't launching the correct 'game' then is Uplay rewriting that registry entry? Have you checked that? If it's not then Uplay is storing the path in some file in it's folder.
