Is it possible to add a registry key to a package as a post installation task? I have tried adding a .reg file, but it doesn't work.
Any help greatly appreciated
I have tried it as follows, but without success:
Add a post package file - Run Program - Reg.exe Import WordQ.reg
I have placed the reg.exe file and WordQ.reg file in the package.
Below is an extract from the error logging file. I think I have just not used the correct syntax.
