Check Windows version inside custom action

[Helan]

My setup uses a C#/Wix custom action. Inside that custom action I want to check which Windows version the setup is executed on.

I found this forum post about checking Windows version:
viewtopic.php?t=34212

Can I access the "VersionNT", "VersionNT64" and "MsiNTProductType" values from C# code inside the custom action?

Hello Helan,

The answer to that is yes, you can access the "VersionNT", "VersionNT64" and "MsiNTProductType" properties from your custom action.

In order to get a property value, you can use the following:

Code: Select all

MyVariable = session["MyProperty"];

In order to set a property value, you can use the following:

Code: Select all

session["MyProperty"] = "MyValue";

Hope this helps.

Kind regards,
Catalin

You're always welcome, Helan.

I am glad you got this working.


All the best,
