Migrating old registry entries

[smljoju]

When are registry entries written by the installer?

Use case is that we moved registry entries location and we want to migrate data from the old registry location to the new location if the new location (registry key) does not exist

So on product update we would need to check if new registry key exist, if not then migrate data from the old registry key to the new one

Hello,

The registry entries (that you provide in the "Registry" page) are written during the "Write Registry" action.

This action is part of the "Add resources" action group:

Hope this helps!
