but the registry key is never found to the target
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Ich

Michael,..,

Within your InstallShield project:

Registry Root:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE

Registry Key:
software\lch\test

Registry Value: (optional)
wert

Search the 64-bit portion of the Registry: Unchecked



This is the location it will find on the target machine:

Registry Key: (note 32bit registry location)
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\WOW6432Node\lch\test

string value of wert
data value of 1 (a data value is needed it seems)


---------------


In order to locate the below registry key:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\lch\test

string value of wert
data value of 1

You will need to search the 64bit portion of the registry and your installer will need to be 64bit.


---------------

To convert your installer to a 64bit installer, goto #2 "Specify Application Data"

In the "Destination Computer's Folders" view right click on Destination Computer and select 'ProgramFiles64Folder' and use this as your installation directory.


Hope that helps
