Verify Your Installation

You can check to see whether your installation was successful by using either Programs and Features or the Registry.

To verify installation using Programs and Features

To verify the installation using the Registry

Open a command prompt.
Type regedit and then press Enter.
When the Registry opens, browse to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\BizTalk Server\3.0
If files exist in the 3.0 folder, setup succeeded.
