Hello,
I want to write my own setup procedure using csharp.
I'm not using the build in setup project because I need to install my
software more than once on the same computer and cannot do it with msi.
Is it ok if I just write into :
HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall
or do I need to implement any dll?


Thanks,
Sharon

Yes, just add it to that location in the registry. You'll need to create a
GUID for your program. The DisplayName key simply has the name of the
program to add to the list. The UninstallString key has the path to the
program that will uninstall your application.

That's pretty much it.
