Edit Registry for SVS Layer

WiseScript Editor Reference
Double Word
(REG_DWORD prefix) Identifies a value entry as a 32-bit (DWORD) entry.
Binary/Hex
(REG_BINARY prefix) Identifies a value entry as binary. Each byte should be
separated by at least one blank space. For instance: AD 30 C0 A9 40 20 A8 FC
4C 00 08.
None
This is provided for compatibility with SMS Installer installations. It behaves the
same as the binary data type.
Append Data
Normally, if you set a registry key to a new value and the key already exists, the
value is replaced with the new value. If you want to append the new data to an
existing multiple strings value instead of replacing it, mark this check box. This
option is unavailable unless Multiple Strings is selected in the Data Type drop-
down list.
This action adds, edits, or deletes registry keys or values in an SVS Layer. You can
create registry entries manually or import a registry file (.REG).
Note
Use this action on a deactivated SVS layer only.
To complete the dialog box
Registry Keys
This field shows root registry keys and the keys added by this action. Select a root
before adding or importing a key.
Value Names
This field shows values being added or changed that reside under the key selected
on the left.
New Key
To add a new key, select the parent key in Registry Keys, click the New Key
button, and select Key from the drop-down. A dialog box appears, where you enter
information about the new key.
See Registry Key Settings Dialog Box
To import from a .REG file, select the parent key in Registry Keys, click the New
Key button, and select Import.
When you add a key, you are not necessarily adding it to the registry on the
destination computer. If the key already exists, this action might add a value to it,
update it, or delete it and all its associated values.
Delete Key
Removes the selected key from the current installation. This does not remove it
from the destination computer. To do that, you must change the Operation field in
the key's details dialog box.
