Registry permissions not inheriting

[Elton]

Hi,
Newbie Question
I have an issue where the permissions i am setting are setting the top level permission but everything below that is not getting changed
EG
If i set everyone full read/write to[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Company]
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Company\Product]
and
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Company\Product\Details]
Only [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Company] has the permission that I set.
Everything below that has the default permissions.
What am I doing wrong?

Hi,
Your problem is caused by the order in which Windows Installer creates the keys- this is arbitrary. My suggestion is to use a custom action that set the permissions on the keys you want.
