setup and registry

Hi!

I want to make a setup program to setup my application. I am using Visual Studio 2008 and I used the default "setup and deployment" project type. There is a page where I can setup some registry value. I want to create a registry value that contains the target folder (the folder where the application will be installed). How can I create this registry value? Does anyone know?

you can use "inno setup". this is freeware.

The setup project in your solution explorer should have a registry section. Right click on the project in the solution explorer and drill down to "View" -> "Registry".

yes it has a registry section. I can create a new key here but my problem was to write the installation folder that I don't know in advance (the user choose it during the installation process).
Finally, I found how to do it. I just need to write down "[TARGETDIR]"!

I really like Inno too.
It creates one single setup exe as opposed to the microsoft setups with multiple files.
