Hi Kay,
Never played with the Registry before - steep learning curve. My current
installer (and INNO script) can be downloaded from:
https://www.dropbox.com/s/rp5py97hxh1j8gx/Lux%20setup.iss?dl=0
If associated, Lux can be selected by right clicking an appropriate file
--open with-> choose another app. I have not worked out yet how to add it
to the basic open with list during installation.
As the installer changes the registry I suggest that you create a restore
point before you start.
As the program files are changing, I think that you should have the
installer and distribute. I think that it is obvious what needs to change
in the script to use access the main program files. Also I think that
'ini' is not a good file extension to use as so many other programs use it
for various purposes
