InstallShield 2015
Project: This information applies to the following project types:
| • | Advanced UI |
| • | Suite/Advanced UI |
Edition: The Advanced UI project type is available in the Professional edition of InstallShield. The Suite/Advanced UI project type is available in the Premier edition of InstallShield. For information about the differences between these two project types, see Advanced UI Projects vs. Suite/Advanced UI Projects.
When you are building a conditional statement for an exit, detection, eligibility, or feature condition in an Advanced UI or Suite/Advanced UI project, or for an action condition in a Suite/Advanced UI project, you can create a Registry Exists condition.
The Registry Exists setting shows the condition that is configured for checking target systems for the presence of a particular registry key, and optionally a specific value name. To define this type of condition, configure the subsettings under the Registry Exists setting as needed.
The following subsettings are available for this condition.

Registry Key |
To create a conditional statement that checks for the presence of a particular registry key, select the appropriate root key in this setting, and then enter the rest of the registry path. Available root keys are:
When you type a value for this setting, you can include one or more formatted expressions that contain property names, environment variable references, and other special strings; at run time, the installation expands the values of these expressions. To learn about the syntax that is available for these expressions, see Using Formatted Expressions that Advanced UI and Suite/Advanced UI Installations Resolve at Run Time. |

Value Name |
To create a conditional statement that checks for the presence of a particular registry value for the specified registry key, enter the appropriate registry value. If you do not want to check for the presence of a specific registry value—that is, you want to check only for the presence of a registry key—leave this setting blank. When you type a value for this setting, you can include one or more formatted expressions that contain property names, environment variable references, and other special strings; at run time, the installation expands the values of these expressions. To learn about the syntax that is available for these expressions, see Using Formatted Expressions that Advanced UI and Suite/Advanced UI Installations Resolve at Run Time. |

64-Bit Key |
Specify whether you want the Advanced UI or Suite/Advanced UI installation to check the 64-bit portion of the registry on 64-bit systems. If you select True, the Advanced UI or Suite/Advanced UI installation ignores this conditional statement on 32-bit target systems. |
