Re: [WiX-users] Add run key entry in Vista?

2006-10-09 Thread Jeff MacDuff








So if we make the MSI install for all
users.. we should be able to create a new run key entry without hitting the
redirection problems?

Is ALLUSERS set to 1? If a package is per-user, Vista
redirection kicks in.

AFAIK, redirection is used only when a non-elevated user tries to write
to system locations. That said, I'm not a Vista expert by any
means...but it's worth an experiment at least.

[WiX-users] Add run key entry in Vista?

2006-10-06 Thread Jeff MacDuff








I need to add my application to the HKLM\windows\currentversion\Run
key in the registry so that my app will start at every boot up for users.



In Vista, I am having
trouble setting this key through the MSI without it getting re-directed to the
virtual store ( which of course doesnt help me ).



Does anyone know the by design / proper way to do this in
vista? 



Thanks,

Jeff
