running a key after install
isa there some code that runs a registry key's value after its installed.. etc. i install a registry key in HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run
and the value is "application1.exe -b configurationfile.config"

how could i make this application launch automaticly from the key? or something like that ? thanks

To run a program use Exec:
Exec '"application1.exe" "-b configurationfile.config"'

Installer if you want to run it there and then. If you want to wait for the process to finish use ExecWait.

The Run registry key is for running a program when you boot up Windows.
