Thank you, Denis, for educating me on what is going on. Making a simple Java launcher became too much work with Advanced Installer. Instead, I am now using exe4j.

In order to run our utility, we need to be able to look in the registry and see where the VM was installed and then pass this information to the Advanced Installer Java launcher. The AI Java Launcher works only with the JRE provided by Sun. The path to the JRE in the INI file is used to locate the ...

is there a way to set the JRE path at install time?
We are making a Java utility that will install on a machine that already has a VM installed. It is not the Sun VM, so the normal Sun VM rules do not apply. In order to run our utility, we need to be able to look in the registry and see where the VM was installed and then pass this information to the...
