Hi All,
Does ti require special permissions to write DWORD value into the registry
as compared to string?
the only difference between the 2 snippets below is the Type =
integer/string
the following code fails with error. Sufficient permission not there to
write to registry.
<Component Id='RegistryComponent'
Guid='870A83F8-C9EF-4884-8BEE-CCD044433CC2' Location='local' Win64='$(
var.Win64AttributeValue)'>
<Registry Id='Registry'
Action='write'
Root='HKLM'
Key='SOFTWARE\Product'
Name='Eula'
Type='integer'
Value='[PROPERTYNAME]'>
<Permission GenericAll='yes' User='Administrators' />
<Permission Read='yes' Write='yes' User='Everyone' />
</Registry>
</Component>
the following works as expected.
<Component Id='RegistryComponent'
Guid='870A83F8-C9EF-4884-8BEE-CCD044433CC2' Location='local' Win64='$(
var.Win64AttributeValue)'>
<Registry Id='Registry'
Action='write'
Root='HKLM'
Key='SOFTWARE\Product'
Name='Eula'
Type='string'
Value='[PROPERTYNAME]'>
<Permission GenericAll='yes' User='Administrators' />
<Permission Read='yes' Write='yes' User='Everyone' />
</Registry>
</Component>
THanks,
Kaushik
