ReadRegStr works sometimes ?
 

I perform the following registry read to get the iTunes program files folder location:

ReadRegStr $iTunesFolder HKCR "Applications\\iTunes.exe\\DefaultIcon" ""

Sometimes I get a blank value in $iTunesFolder and sometimes I get the real value that's in the registry.

This will be on the same machine in consecutive runs of the installer.

I put a MessageBox in right after the call to see what I get, this is how I know that it is blank sometimes.

Has anyone had intermittent problems like this reading the registry?

Thanks,
Ken

you dont need double backslashes in registry "path"

That seems to have fixed it, thanks!
