When you run the installer there is an option for it to behave like Oracle's. Those checkboxes are unticked by default so you'll need to rerun the installer and select them
@karianna Please read my description once more. I am using the install option "JavaSoft (Oracle) registry keys". It only sets a small subset of the registry keys.
@karianna Thanks.
