Registry query / DoesKeyExist

[kampen]

Why does the following query not work?


result = Registry.DoesKeyExist(HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE, "System\\ControlSet001\\Control\\Nis\\Language\\In stallLanguage\\0407");

if result == true then
Dialog.TimedMessage("Please Wait...", "German Text", 20000, MB_ICONINFORMATION);


elseif result == false then
Dialog.TimedMessage("Please Wait...", "Englisch Text", 20000, MB_ICONINFORMATION);


end

InstallLanguage is a value, not a key.

Thanks for your answer!
Is there the possibility to query this value? And if so, how?

Hello, this should work:

local sInstallLanguage = Registry.GetValue(HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE, "System\\ControlSet001\\Control\\Nls\\Language", "InstallLanguage");

if (sInstallLanguage == "0407") then
    Dialog.TimedMessage("Please Wait...", "German Text\r\n" .. sInstallLanguage, 5000, MB_ICONINFORMATION);
else
    Dialog.TimedMessage("Please Wait...", "Englisch Text\r\n" .. sInstallLanguage, 5000, MB_ICONINFORMATION);
end
