    copied!<p>I want my application to check (before start installation) for <strong>Nokia_PC_Suite_rel_7_0_8_2</strong> my steps are :</p> <p>1) I added Registry Search and it's properties are </p> <pre><code>Property = PCSUITERUNTIMEEXISTS, RegKey = HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\PCSuite\Product, Root= vsdrrHKLM, Value = Nokia Pc Suite </code></pre> <p>NOTE: I got the value of <code>Value</code> property from the registry editor were i double-clicked on PCSiute then I found Product when I clicked on it I found a dialogue with 2 texts: </p> <ol> <li>Value name</li> <li>Value data</li> </ol> <p>2) I added new Launch condition called "PCSuite Runtime installed, if not prompt user" and its properties are :</p> <pre><code> condition = PCSUITERUNTIMEEXISTS //(it's a drop down list so I selected the condition I created in "Registry Search"), Messege = [ProductName] requires Nokia_PC_Suite_rel_7_0_8_2 runtime. Please run setup.exe to install the prerequisites for this application. </code></pre> <p>Now in setup.exe I added Nokia_PC_Suite_rel_7_0_8_2.exe as a pre-requisites so when the user double-clicked on setup.exe he will ask him to install Nokia_PC_Suite_rel_7_0_8_2 if he cancelled the whole installation will stop.</p> <p>What really happens is that when I click on .msi file is always displays the message ("[ProductName] requires Nokia_PC_Suite_rel_7_0_8_2 runtime. Please run setup.exe to install the prerequisites for this application.") although there is PCSuite Version installed on my PC.</p> <p>So what to do? I want him to continue the installation if he found PCSuite if not display the message so the user will go to setup.exe. Also when I un-installed PCSuite and clicked onsetup.exe it started installing PCSuite and when he finished he displayed the previous message and quit from the installation.</p>
