Using command line properties in uninstaller

Mon May 22, 2017 3:04 pm

Hi,
I'm running the installer with few properties and send a pixel (POST Request) to track the installs, something like:

setup.exe SUBID=12345 CAMPID=62626

its working well, i want to use same properties at uninstall process to track uninstalls.
I need to store the properties in registry? how can i read from registry and assign it back to properties?

Thanks

Sorin

Hello,

Advanced Installer has predefined support for storing properties in the registry. These properties called "Persistent properties" are then used at Uninstall/Maintenance. Please take a look on our article : How do I make the properties in the package keep their values during Maintenance or Upgrade?
These are the steps to create persistent property:
1. go to "Install Parameters" page and create a new property
2. select "Set persistent property" option

Best regards,
