How To Install SN7 Orion SE Without Installing The ASCOM Driver Prerequisites (Answer: Read On!)

I'd like to install SN7 without any of the scope hardware drivers;  

I did the install originally on a Win7 platform, and it added about 1 million registry entries related to ASCOM, 99.9% drivers for telescopes and mounts I'll never own.  Pretty sure I was diligent and did whatever was possible to get the minimal install, but there I was...

I am now running a Win10 install and trying to keep things to a bare minimum, and do not want to repeat my Win7 SN7 install nightmare.

Is there a command line installer to select installed options, or any way to avoid filling my registry with millions of entries for things I'll never use?

Any assistance welcome.

    ps: If this isn't available in SN7, but is available in a newer paid version update, that too is a possibility.

    When you run the installer there should be options to uncheck the prerequisites to be installed by default.
