Add install path to registry?

Hi all,

This has probably been asked a million times but the Search function wont let me search for it as its "too common"

Basically, once the product has been installed I want to write the install path to the registry... How do I go about doing this? I've looked through the property list for the keys but I cant seem to find one for the install path?!

(using Advanced Installer 6.6 Profressional)

Cheers

Re: Add install path to registry?

Hi Will,

Please note that you can use the search functionality on our website. It will return results from the User Guide and from the forum.

Advanced Installer allows you to create or modify registry entries through the Registry page. When you create a new registry value, you can specify [APPDIR] in the "Data" section of the Edit Registry Entry dialog. This way, the registry entry will contain the installation path of the package.

Please note that the APPDIR property contains the path of the "Application Folder" directory in the "Files and Folders" page.

Regards,
Cosmin
