MSI prevents registry key recovery

I created an MSI installation through Visual Studio 2008 for my application and added a registry key in Windows \ run to start automatically, but also implemented a function in my application to turn off automatic start. However, when the application restarts, the key is automatically restored.

How to prevent MSI from repairing a key?

Thank!
