Set the path for the registry settings for the installer

Hello!

I want that my Installer to add some registry keys in the Windows registry.  The value of these registry keys is dependent on what the user selects as their installation for my software installation path.  Does anyone know if there is a variable which represents the installation path as installation of %path% or something?

I'm using LabVIEW 2009 SP1.

Let me know if you need more information!

I guess if it isn't a solution, I can add code to my program to create these registry keys once the installed program.

Thank you!

-Nic

I solved this solution by running a small "setup wizard" application (written in BT) that gets run when the Setup program finishes. To configure this, be sure to include your Assistant app built with the Installer Setup and then there is a setting in the advanced options of the installer to specify an application to run when the Setup program finishes. You can also pass parameters from command line for the program, and particularly to the destination installed (e.g. C:\Program Files\...) and [DISTROOT] for the folder that contains setup.exe (for example D:\) [INSTALLDIR].

I couldn't see any reference to these guys using registry options, but if they work as well because, it's certainly worth knowing

(although for the soft, I speak to you, the installation wizard has done much more in addition to writing registry values, including audit/install 3rd party drivers and .NET)

    This is because you have not set the PS_CFG_HOME environment variable.
    New at PT8.50, when this is not set, the configuration of the domain files go in the user folder.
    If you ever want to find your domains under PS_HOME as before, you must set this variable equal to the PS_HOME, he should go to.

  • The registry settings for the program by default PDF for IE

    Hello

    I have a problem with the default program for a PDF file through the registry for IE11.

    With the key:
    HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\FileExts\.pdf\UserChoice

    I am able to set the default program for PDF files on the desktop / Windows Explorer - unfortunately this is not an effect on Internet Explorer settings.
    In IE11 always the last installed / updated PDF program is set as default to display PDF files.

    I would like to be able to set / switch between Adobe Acrobat Reader DC und dem PDFXChange Editor as default program for IE11 through settings in the registry for all the computers in our field.

    Operating system is Windows 7 Pro 64 bit and version the most recent IE and both programs PDF.

    Does anyone have an idea?

    Additional information:
    Wenn, I use the option "open with...". "to set the default PDF program, this isn't the effect of the setting of IE - but when you use the function integrated in both programs PDF to set as default, then it works for IE as well.

    Thanks for any help in advance!

  • How to set the path of the report in a plugin for model

    I'm trying to figure out how to set the path of the report in a plugin process model. I can't find a way to have access to it. It seems this would be a reasonable thing to do since the plug-ins are for the treatment of the results. Does anyone know how to do this? We generally use the sequential process model, but I try to keep my plug-in as independent as possible.

    Thank you.

    If I understand correctly, you want your plug-in, when enabled, change the settings of all other instances of the report OR plugin as their reports share the same directory that your plug-in is configured to use.

    If so, your plug-in can access and change the settings of all other instances of plugin. All instances are passed to all the points of plugin entries in the subproperty of the plugins of the ModelConfiguration parameter table. You can browse this table. Any element of the array with an equal to "NI_ReportGenerator.seq" Base.SequenceFilename is an instance of the report OR plugin. Its report options are stored in the element under PluginSpecific.Options.

    You can change the report options to what you want. Note that the recall of the ReportOptions model is called from template-plugin Initialize entry point, then you might want to ensure that your changes are applied after that, so they are not replaced. To do this, you could make your changes in the Initialize entry point of your plugin and make sure your plugin runs last. To rotate the last, you can set the FileGlobals.ModelPluginComponentDescription.Default.Base.RunOrder in your file of plug-in with a value greater than 0, for example 1.0 (see Help for TestStand > Fundamentals > process template Architecture > plug-in for the model process Architecture > Structure of the plugin sequence files > plugin model of entry Points > Order Execution of Point of entry at run time).

  • How to set the zoom settings menu for lecroywaverunner 6050A

    Hello

    I am trying to initialize the zoom settings of a track of the labview on a Lecroy WaveRunner 6050 A fft. I found how to set the parameters of the fft with the manual of the remote control for LeCroy scopes  http://cdn.lecroy.com/files/manuals/wm-rcm-e_rev_d.pdf ) but I have not found how to set the menu zoom settings.

    I also tried with find command using the command of automation of Lecroy. ( http://cdn.lecroy.com/files/manuals/automation_command_ref_manual_wr.pdf ). but I think that there is a problem with the settings of the commands I send to the scope.

    I just need to put the horizontal and vertical centers and scales.

    If anyone can help,

    Thank you.

    Hello

    I use F1 as my FFT here track.

    Commands to change the scales are:

    Vertical Center: VBS ' app. Math.F1.Zoom.VerCenter = XXXX"

    Portrait/div scale: VBS ' app. Math.F1.Zoom.VerScale = XXXX"

    Horizontal at the Center: VBS ' app. Math.F1.Zoom.HorCenter = XXXX"

    Horzontal scale/div: VBS ' app. Math.F1.Zoom.HorScale = XXXX"

    I also want to point you to an application on the scope that will help you.

    If you go to the file menu and select cut, to the office, there is a shortcut to an application called "XStream Browser"

    The browser is an interactive application that will present all automation methods and properties that are available on the scope.  He acually connects to the scope of the request, so you can use it to test various components to see what they do on the scope.  It is very intuitive and I use it exclusively. (this is where I went looking for the commands above for you).

    Here is a link to Chapter 1 of the manual of automation: http://cdn.lecroy.com/files/manuals/04_xstreamautomation_ch1.pdf

    Page 1 - 5 has a quick introduction to the browser and its use.

    I hope that it becomes operational.

    Original title: the registry settings used by the iTunes for importing and burning CDs and DVDs are missing. This can occur as a result of installing other CD burning software. reinstall iTunes

    I've loaded and discharged Itunes 5 times and still get the same error message box. This error does exactly what he says, I can not burn anything in my itunes library.

It will not work on Windows 7-64.  I can download and play songs from any site, but can not burn anything.  And I don't have any other burning software on my CD PC

    Hello PohlCat,

    Given that you have uninstalled and reinstalled iTunes without correcting the problem, it may be with a 3rd party product causes a problem.

    I would look at the post here to see if this solution can help you. It's from a 3rd third party site, you should use at your own risk, because it has not been tested, but seemed to help others with the same error that you are experiencing.

    Hi wimuggss,
     
    Step 1: Disable UAC (User Account Control) and check the result
    See How can I change the behavior of user account control by using the cursor?
    Note: You must restart your computer when you enable or disable UAC. Change levels of notification does not require that you restart your computer.
     
    Important: Enable UAC after you complete the steps.
     
    Step 2: If the problem persists, try to set the parental control in safe mode and check the result. If you are able to apply settings in safe mode, this means that some program is causing this problem, mainly the security software.

  • Upgrade to Windows 7 Ultimate and highway 2010 receives the error: "your registry settings for this application no were not copied correctly."

    I updated from XP Pro to Win7 Ultimate.

    When I try to install Highway 2010 (that I had before) I get the following message

    I have found since that when I uninstall several files are missing, 41ce1.rbf & 41d81.rbf are later. It seems that highway will not properly work without their files (I guess here).

    So where they are or how can I get the.

    I get the same problems when I try to install Highway 2011 test, I don't buy the full program so the custom of trial run.
