It sure reads like a conflict between the two.. But I would reinstall
and see if they cooperate with each other. You can always correct it
again with the same registry change. You could export the two entries
and name them accordingly, registering the one needed for a particular
program to work. That could keep you going till an update in one of the
programs lets them play well together again.
