Add Reg Keys
Under System Configuration \ Registry I want to add a new key. I want to Add HKLM\MyCustomKey\PRODUCTNAME and I want product name to be the variable Pruduct Name from the General Information page. What is the syntax to do that?
HKLM\MyCustomKey\[%productname%]\MyCustomDataValue is what we need to do.
Thank you.

Giving the key as "HKLM\MyCustomKey\[ProductName]\MyCustomDataValue" is good enough to get your product name expanded during the install time

Thanks. But I have a new issue. Under System Configuration\Registry I navigate to Destination Computer - Default (Always Installed). There I create a new key under HKLM\MyNewKey.
I compile my script and run it. The reg key does Not get installed. Why?
