The Registry Table of Windows installer does not support such action. see MSDN: http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/library/en-us/msi/setup/registry_table.asp >> If you need during uninstallation to write something to registry you >> should write the CustomAction for it. > > I already tried to do so but failed to figure out how to > write a registry key from a custom action. I would prefer to use C++ Custom Action DLL. You should use the RegSetValueEx() function to write the values to registry. http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms724923.aspx Hope it wil help you.
