Registry View

The registry view allows the adding, editing and deleting of registry keys, names and values in the currently opened package.

The panel is split into 2 views, the top which is the current registry view of your local system, and the bottom which is a view of the current project. Entries from the top can be added to the bottom.

To Add a Registry Key:

You can add a registry key in different ways, either

• Add an existing key
• Add an existing key with its sub keys
• Create a new key to add to the project.

To add an existing key, with or without sub keys, select the key in the top System View. It can be added either using the buttons on the panel, or by right-clicking and selecting the option on the context menu. All values belonging to the key will also be added.

To create a new key, select the parent key in the bottom Project View and then right click to bring up the context menu and select Add Key.

To Add a Registry Value

Registry values can either be added or created.

To add an existing value, browse to it in the top System View and then add it by double-clicking, select the option in the context menu, or use the button on the panel. The key for the value will also be added.

To create a new value, in the right hand panel of the Project Value, use the context menu to select New>String/DWORD/Binary value.

Remove/Editing Keys and Values

There is an option to delete and edit key names in the context menu, or by pressing F2 or the delete key.

View or Edit Registry Value Details

Select the value in the bottom left Project View panel and either double click or bring up the context menu and select 'Details'. This brings up the Registry Entry Details dialog box.

Remove a Registry Key on Install

Add the registry key to the project and then select it and bring up the Context Menu. There is an option which should be selected (checked) called 'Remove all subkeys and values on Install'.

Remove Value Entry during Install

To remove a value during the install, bring up the context menu for the value and check the item 'Delete Name on Install'.

Importing and Exporting Registry Keys and Values

There are buttons and options in the context menus to import from registry files or export to registry files. The exported registry files are in the same format as those exported from regedit and vice versa.
