After the finish button? HKCU or HKLM? Outside of the transaction you typically don't have rights to privileged areas, so HKLM is out, unless you spawn a second transaction somehow (possibly via a separate feature using ADDLOCAL).
If it is HKCU, is it then configuration instead of installation? Use a CA that writes configuration to HKCU. After all, you won't ever clean it up. -----Original Message----- From: sean farrow [mailto:sean.far...@seanfarrow.co.uk] Sent: Tuesday, January 26, 2010 8:15 PM To: 'General discussion for Windows Installer XML toolset.' Subject: [WiX-users] performing an action after the finish buton has been pressed Hi: Within an installation I'm currently writing, I have a checkbox that sets a property on one of the dialogues. This property control whether registry values are written. I probably though msi best practices is to add the registry entries to a component, and base them on a property, i.e the property set by the checkbox. This however does not help in this implementation. I'd like the registry entries to be written after the finish button has been pressed and all dialogues have been shown. Can anyone suggest how to do this?
