[RESOLVED] Registry key for P3dv4 setupPath?

Post by iBlueYonder »

I have never had an issue with this before, but for some reason I can't find the Windows registry key for the Prepar3D v4 setupPath. I'm trying to update some installers for the new sim, but this has me stumped. Has anyone already accessed the new key and been able to get the path to the root P3D4 folder? If so, I'd love to know where it can be found.

Hello iBlueYonder

The SetupPath key is located below

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE \ Software \ Lockheed Martin \ Prepar3D v4 \ SetupPath

Thanks. Curiously, InstallCreator Pro couldn't find that key. However, on the advice of some other sim developers, I did manage to use this one successfully:

HKEY_CURRENT_USER \ Software \ Lockheed Martin \ Prepar3D v4 \ AppPath

Not entirely sure why I couldn't find the key you mentioned, though.
