Setting Values to use ExtractToFile plugin

Hi,

I need to execute a batch file to read windows registry during the pre-install stage and my installer would use the values in the later stage.

Im trying to use ExtractToFile plugin to set the source and destination values so that I can execute my batch file from the ExtractToFile_Destination folder. I have included the file in "DO_NOT_INSTALL" folder. I can see my batch file in the installer temp folder\..Extract.zip\C_\folder\subfolder\myfile.bat. But it is not getting copied to the Destination folder.

Can someone guide me how to use this plugin effectively.

Thanks,

Hello,

If you want to read the windws registry using script file then that will be lot of work.

Instead of this you can use IstallAnywhere inbuilt feature "Get Windows Registry Entry".
