InstallShield enables you to edit the value of an attribute if it is already present on the target machine at run time. To do so, add the attribute to the element in the XML File Changes view, and configure the value for the attribute as needed. The procedure for editing an attribute value is the same as adding an attribute value. To learn more, see Adding an Attribute to an Element.

At run time, if a different value exists for the attribute, the installation replaces the value with the one that you configured in the XML File Changes view.
