Registry View

InstallShield 2025 Express Edition » Quick Patch Project

The Registry view in a QuickPatch project provides a visual representation of what currently exists on a source machine and what you will patch on a destination/target system once your patch project is built and applied to the target system. The Destination computer’s Registry view pane and the Destination computer’s registry data pane are prepopulated with registry entries in the original installation.

Each item in the Destination computer’s registry data pane appears next to an icon specific to the value type and the data’s current condition. Icons for data values that have been modified have a turquoise pencil. Icons for new data values have a red star in the upper-right corner. Icons for registry values that will be deleted from the target system have a red X. See the following sample icons and descriptions below.
