But in fact it should not need it. If pidgin was NOT added to registry, i should get the option to get the OTR files into a directory of my choosing (selecting the path works fine right now) and add them manually into pidgin.
Update: Thanks to the "packaging\windows\pidgin-otr.nsi" file in the sources, i could find a workaround: temporarily create the HKLM\Software\pidgin key, set the default value to the installation directory of pidgin, and remove the key after the plugin was installed...
If you would like to refer to this comment somewhere else in this project, copy and paste the following link:

You seem to know how .nsi scripting works (which I do not). ;-)
If you'd like to submit a patch to the effect you suggest, I'd love to have it!
Thanks.
