[Registry locaton for FSX]

OK thanks Pete, for the information.

[Registry locaton for FSX]

Having no problems with fsuipc.  Just a technical question.

I recently re-installed fsupic  v. 4.955c (registered) and was looking at the FSUIPC4 Install.log and found the following:

"Looking in registry for FSX install path:
     HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Microsoft Games\Flight Simulator\10.0
     Parameter"SetupPath"
... >>>  OK! FOUND FSX!  <<< ...
     SetupPath=E:\Flight Simulator X\"

 

Just out of curiosity, I opened up the registry editor and clicked the path as listed in the log above.  I got as far as "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE_SOFTWARE.   But  "'Microsoft\Microsoft Games\Flight Simulator\10.0" was not listed.

Eventually, I did locate  "HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Microsoft Games\Flight Simulator\10.0".

So my question relates to the apparent discrepancy of what was reported in the FSUIPC log and what I found when I checked the registry on my computer.  That is,  the FSUIPC installer, according to the log, found the reference to Flight Simulator X in "HKEY_Local Machine but when I checked the Registry on my computer, the Flight Simulator X entry was located in HKEY_Current_User.

 

Thanks
