Hi Bernard,

Setup created by ISX LE VFP is just a wrapper around Windows Installer and ERROR 1406 is generated by Windows Installer. Did you eliminate all posible causes of this error as outlined in http://support.installshield.com/kb/view.asp?pcode=ADTUN200E&articleid=Q107090 ?


>I need to install the VFP runtimes on our servers which run Win2K.
>
>I have created a single Installation EXE for this with the option of installing for current user or ALL users. This has been done with the InstallShield version found on the VFP7 CD.
>
>Every time I try to install the runtimes START, SETTINGS, ADD/REMOVE PROGRAMS and then install, I get 3 very similar errors:
>
>1. ERROR 1406: Could not write value "VersionMajor" to key
> UNKNOWN\PRODUCTS\6AAASED....E1435B\INSATALLPROPERTIES. Verify that you have sufficient access to that key, or contact your support personnel.
>
>2. ERROR 1406: Similar message except :
>
> HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\MICRO$OFT\WINDBLOWS\CURRENTVERSION\UNINSTALL\{ASD .....etc
>
>3. Similar to 2 except the key {....} is different. I just click on Ignore and the runtime is installed.
>
>I am logged in with ADMINISTRATOR rights.
>
>I have searched all over but have not found any reference to this except a small one on the InstallShield KB site where they blame the Windblows Installer version.
>
>Does anyone know of a fix for this?
>
>Thanks
