App Paths Registry Setting?

Is there a way to automatically set the App Paths registry value in Advanced Installer? As per this article (http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library ... s.85).aspx, Microsoft recommends this, and while it's easy enough to manually make this registry setting in Advanced Installer, I'd love to use any built-in capabilities provided by Advanced Installer.

Re: App Paths Registry Setting?

Hello,

You can create file association with an application from your package so that the selected program can perform certain operations (verbs) on the files with the specified extension. In order to achieve that you can go in the File Associations page and create a file association.

Also, you can take a look on the Create new file extensions and make file associations article which may help you.

Please let us know if that helped, otherwise give us more details.

Best regards,
Dan
