It's a long time since I installed Vdub, If I remember correctly, the VirtualDub.exe IS THE INSTALLER, and extracts
other stuff from inside itself. (I for years just copy a folder for ALL non-install programs, I can do a
new OS setup and copy my NON-INSTALL folder to C:\ and copy the shortcuts folder into Start Menu\Programs\NON-INSTALL\
so can install all my non-install programs [at least 100], with minimum effort, and hotkeys installed too).

Did registry search on "www.virtualdub-fr.org", and found this (only place in entire registry, except the copy of Current User)
Code:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\ShellNoRoam\MUICache\

C:\NON-INSTALL\VDUB\VDUB_MOD\VirtualDubMod     REG_SZ    www.virtualdub-fr.org
EDIT: Both copies of VD original and your version are there too with their directories (but same name VirtualDub),
so somewhere in VD source there is a string "VirtualDub" that is installed to that location.

I'll see if I can find the "www.virtualdub-fr.org" in vdmod source.

EDIT: Here all places in vdmod source that have that string ("www.virtualdub-fr.org").
Code:
Setup.rc
Changes.txt
VirtualDub.rc
Init.cpp
projectui.cpp
credits_mod.h
Changes_MOD.txt
EDIT: OK, got it sorted, using below "
Install_VDUB_ShellNoRoam.reg"
Code:
Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\ShellNoRoam\MUICache]
"C:\\NON-INSTALL\\VDUB\\VDUB_MOD\\VirtualDubMod.exe"="www.virtualdub-fr.org"
"C:\\NON-INSTALL\\VDUB\\VDUB_PLAIN\\VirtualDub.exe"="VirtualDub"
"C:\\NON-INSTALL\\VDUB\\VDUB_DEEP\\VirtualDubDEEP.exe"="VirtualDubDEEP"
So I can install and use now without too much of a problem.

EDIT: Obviously the path to the executables above is for my system only (ie, "C:\\NON-INSTALL\\VDUB\\VDUB_MOD\\" etc)
Above double slashes are totally necessary for the .reg file (real path are only single backslash).
