If the RegistrySearch/@Win64 attribute is not set to "yes" will always look
in the "32-bit" registry, which means that the "Wow6432Node" part of the

Do you know what component(s) install the file in question? If so using
ComponentSearch would likely be a better approach.

The culture (as it comes from the .wixproj file) is currently used in
linking and binding, not compiling. It is possible construct the build
system such that you compile just one time and then link for each culture.
As a result, the preprocessor doesn't necessarily ever have a way to know

To understand this issue: your application (when it was per-user) was

I guess you should save those values to the registry (see RegistryKey /

I don't think you can do it without custom action. However, it should be
pretty simple:
1. Use the standard RegistrySearch functionality to get the value you
need into a property
2. [CA here] Modify the property the way you need (increment, for

3. Use the standard RegistryKey/Reg
Keep WixUsers on the thread so others can also learn and contribute.
In WiX 3.0, I only see "raw" used with RegistrySearch and "string" used with
