Answer Summary:
Here is some information which I can share with you for RunOnce key. Hope it will answer your question. http://msiworld.blogspot.com.au/2009/11/runonce-key.html Regarding StubPath. Yes, you can run two StubPaths, but make sure they are in different Reg hive. If you have created one reghive of [ProductCode] then make another of any other unique name like {runvbs} Any name will also work, not necessarily you have to keep a GUID.

Yes, make sure GUID should be different for both.
