Question

I have developed an application and installed it on a client computer. In my application I need to get its installation path. My application has a registry entry at:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\MyApplication\[AppPath]

How can I read AppPath using C#?

You can use RegistryKey class under Microsoft.Win32 namespace.

Some important functions of RegistryKey are as follows:

GetValue       //to get value of a key
SetValue       //to set value to a key
DeleteValue    //to delete value of a key
OpenSubKey     //to read value of a subkey (read-only)
CreateSubKey   //to create new or edit value to a subkey
DeleteSubKey   //to delete a subkey
GetValueKind   //to retrieve the datatype of registry key
