Registry Key Tab

Registry Key Dialog

Registry Key

Path

This points at the registry's key location. This path is localized.

Properties

  • Create (if absent) at install
  • this option makes sense only if the registry key does not contain a value. If this option is selected the registry key will be created at install time if it is not present.
  • Delete (if present) at uninstall
  • with this option enabled the key is to be deleted, if present, with all of its values and subkeys, when the component is uninstalled. The key will also be deleted even if no values are in it.

If the registry key contains at least a value these options are not needed. The registry key will be automatically created at install time and deleted during uninstall.
