Hi all,

We are looking to deploy an application that needs to see a registry key before the install runs. I am not sure how to add the registry key before the installation runs.

The file is a .msi install …just wondering if anyone could shed some light on that.

Here are the steps that the install needs:

-Create HKLM\software registry key

-Once reg key is created then execute msi file

Any help on this would be great.

Thanks,

Evan

Hey Evan,

You can edit the action to add a line like this before the action runs:

regset “HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Test” “Test1”=“1”

Evan… also… in your script just write an if endif clause something like this:

if {exists “Test1” of key “HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Test” of registry}

endif
