The first one without @Name specified should be working, I just tried it
with SOFTWARE\Adobe\Acrobat Reader\9.0\InstallPath - works
<Property Id="PROPERTY">
<RegistrySearch Id="PROPERTY_REGSEARCH" Root="HKLM"
Key="SOFTWARE\Adobe\Acrobat Reader\9.0\InstallPath" Type="raw" />
</Property>

Subject: [WiX-users] How to search for Default name in Registry
Hello,
I would like to check, if default Name is present in registry.
According to http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa371171(VS.85).aspx
"Note that it is not possible to use the RegLocator table to check only
for the presence of the key. However, you can search for the default
value of a key and retrieve its value if it is not empty."
I tried doing:
<Property Id="PYTHON">
<RegistrySearch Id="PYTHONSearch" Root="HKLM"
Key="SOFTWARE\Python\PythonCore" Type="raw" />
</Property>
or
<Property Id="PYTHON">
<RegistrySearch Id="PYTHONSearch" Root="HKLM"
Key="SOFTWARE\Python\PythonCore" Type="raw" Name="(Default)"/>
</Property>
or
<Property Id="PYTHON">
<RegistrySearch Id="PYTHONSearch" Root="HKLM"
Key="SOFTWARE\Python\PythonCore" Type="raw" Name="Default"/>
</Property>
but neither of these did work.
If I set the Name="" candle.exe says that I should leave it out if I
want it to be null of empty. But that did't work too.
Does anybody have advice on this?
Tamara
