    Auto filling the right install directory

    Hello,

    I am doing a setup installer for an addon. So this addon needs
    to install into the directory of the main programm.

    I have no problems reading out the registry to find out if the
    programm is installed and where it is but I can't find a solution
    to update the EditBox with the new information.

    Can someone help me?

    By default the edit box (screen Select Install Folder) displays what's stored in %AppFolder%.

    When you have read the registry value into sAppFolder (as an example), add:
    SessionVar.Set("%AppFolder%", sAppFolder);


    * IMPORTANT *
    Don't have thes commands on Select Install Folder.On Preload.
    YOU MUST PERFORM THESE ACTIONS ON AN EARLIER STAGE, you may use the previous screen.On Next or Actions.On Startup.

    HTH.
