What happened?

The continuumAnalytics registry key that should be created under HKCU/Software/Python when we install Anaconda is missing on the newer installers(2023 and above)

Expected behavior or outcome

Ideally the key should be present, is this something that is removed intentionally, because i couldn't find anything related to that online. If yes is there any other alternative ways to get the anaconda installed path, because i was using it to get the Anaconda installation path
