Install package TWO only if package ONE is already installed

[JDMils]

I have two setup packages/EXEs.

ONE: Installs a number of Excel workbooks in a custom folder which is chosen by the user. It then sets the folder and filename of one of the XL workbooks in HKLM\Software\[Manufacturer]\[ProductName]\Folder & HKLM\Software\[Manufacturer]\[ProductName]\Filename respectively in the registry.

TWO: Installs a Dot.Net EXE which is opens the one main XL workook from package ONE when required. It reads the registry for the XL workbook's location and filename.

I would like to configure the setup for TWO so that it will only install when ONE is already installed. I suppose the best way is to check the registry key HKLM\Software\[Manufacturer]\[ProductName]\Filename exists and has a predefined value. Is this possible?

Hi,

In order to achieve what you want you can follow the Set launch conditions tutorial for your "TWO" package. You can also search for a registry instead of a file in the Search page.

Let us know if this helped.
