AddReg (Compact 2013)

3/26/2014

Optional.

The AddReg key, under the [DefaultInstall] section, is optional and describes the keys and values that the .cab file adds to the target device registry.

Note

It is recommended that installed applications use the HKCU\Software\ branch of the registry to store information.

Note

If you install multiple applications to the same HKCU\Software branch of the registry, such as HKEY_Computer_User\Software\MyCompany, be aware of the following: when the first application that created the branch is uninstalled, the entire branch will be deleted.
This means any settings created by the second application will be lost. This is by design. To avoid this, install applications to different branches of HKEY_Computer_User \Software</STRONG>, or create the registry keys on first-run or in the Setup dll functions instead of using AddReg.

Syntax

[add_registry_section]
registry_root_string, subkey,[value_name], flags, value[,value]

Parameters

  • registry_root_string
    String that specifies the registry root location.

  • value_name
    Registry value name. If empty, the "(default)" registry value name is used.

    Note

    Use only Unicode characters that can be converted into ANSI characters without data loss. This enables backward compatibility with earlier device versions. For more information, see CAB Wizard.
