Hi,
Ok if you want to copy the %AppDrv% variable into the registry you should:
In SUF
1) Go to System Editors
2) Click the “Add a New Command”
3) Info to put in:
· Main Key: HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT (or anyone that you want)
· Sub Action: Set Value
· Key: %CompanyName%
· Value Name: DirPath (or something more meaningful)
· Action: Overwrite
· Type: REG_SZ
· Data: %AppDir%\myexe.exe
That will put the %AppDir% into the registry. When testing you can look at the registry using REGEDIT (START -> RUN -> regedit)
Now in AutoPlay
1) Have a text object install your software
2) Go to PROJECT -> VARIABLE MANAGER and create a new variable
3) Set the variable name to something like %MyPath%
4) Now for the Main Key, Sub Key, Value Name, use the same information that you used to create the key in SUF, except type in the true company name
5) Create Text Object whose action is Execute Program, and the target is: %MyPath%
Now this works fine, the only problem is that in AutoPlay 2.0 the registry is checked on page open, so you will have to switch to another page and then comeback in order for it to work. Another thing you could do is have the play button on the next page; to make sure that the variable will be updated.
