Get Application Path Name

[btran007]

Hello Everyone,

I am very frustrated . I am relatively new to VB.NET. Can someone please help me . I need to get the paths of applications I have installed written in VB.NET. For some reason they're all registered under \My Computer\HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Installer\Assemblies\C:|Program Files|AppFolder|App.exe. Basically, I need to get the path (C:\Program Files\AppFolder\) by scanning for "App.exe". Can somebody points me the right direction.

Thank You Much
btran

Sorry, I am a little confused by your wording, but you might be looking for My.Application.Info.DirectoryPath

For some reason all the windows application created in VB.NET using Setup and Deployment Projects, when installed, are registered under "Assemblies" and not "App Paths" or any other locations. If I do a Find in the Registry, that's where it's located at and nowhere else. I don't want to know the current path of the current process running. I want to know where other applications(EXE) locate at. I hope that clears it up for you.

Sounds like there are things you havent set in your setup project.. Like where to install the app..
