About HKLM\SOFTWARE\WOW6432Node\Valve\Steam\Apps: is there an easy way to predict games name?

Another solution: I can upgrade game's vdf install file in order to remove references to redist packages. It was implemented in a previous version of Steam Cleaner. Finally, I found it a little bit buggy and I removed it.

I guess check either every HKLM\SOFTWARE\WOW6432Node\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall\Steam App #### entry, or SteamApps\appmanifest_####.acf

Yes, but you really don't know if user has or not that dependency.
Now that you mentions vdf though, I realize not every game is like ace combat (aka reg keys are created after installers success).
In XCOM for example it's way dumber: it checks if its HKCU\SOFTWARE\Valve\Steam\Apps#### has installed flag on 1, if not it runs all installers ==> profit.
