Hello Marko,
Also, will the path stay the same for different versions of Windows OS (e.g. Windows 8/10/11, Windows Server 2012/2016/2019/2022)?
The path is not dependant on the OS, it should be the same on all OSs.
And my last question: how can I use the [Manufacturer] and [UpgradeCode] properties inside of a inline Powershell script custom action? Just by using the AI_GetMsiProperty Manufacturer/AI_GetMsiProperty UpgradeCode calls?
Yes, you can do that through the AI_GetMsiProperty cmdlet. For instance, you can take the value of the property and save it in a variable, e.g.:
Code: Select all
$var = AI_GetMsiProperty YOUR_PROPERTY
What about 64-bit machines? Does the path change then?
Please note that I acutally referred to the 64-bit machines in my previous post.
On a 64-bit machine, a 32-bit process (like our installation) will redirect its registry entries under the
WOW6432Node. This is the default behavior of the OS.
Best regards,
Catalin
