When an Installation Setup is made in vs2005, what are files created in registry entry while installing that setup, and when uninstalling the setup what are the corresponding files deleted from the registry of that setup.
How to know all these.
Can anyone suggest for knowing about all these things?
Thanks...

Hi SVT Gdwlï¼?br/>
After you install your application, the register information is located at:
HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall\

The node in this location is named by your productcode. You can look into the key of one node.
DisplayName is your application name.
InstallLocation is the application location on the disk.
InstallSource is the MSI/setup file location when you install the application.

There is also some other information of your application.

Hope I have not misunderstood your requirement.

Sincerely,
Kira Qian

Hi SVT,

I am moving this thread from Base "Visual Studio Setup and Installation" forum to the "ClickOnce and Setup & Deployment Projects" forum, since the issue is related to deployment. There are more deployment experts in the "ClickOnce and Setup & Deployment Projects" forum.

Thanks

Welcome to the All-In-One Code Framework! If you have any feedback, please tell us.

It's not clear what you mean by "files created in registry entry" or "deleted from the registry". In general, a setup does what you tell it to do in the IDE, file view and registry view etc.
