[SOLVED] Problem creating deployment package.

Hello everyone,

I'm new to WAPT, so I'm still having a little trouble with some of the functions.

Here's my problem:

I need to deploy the "3DXML Player" software. Since it's not one of the pre-made packages, I'm using the WAPT package template creation wizard. However, after specifying the location of the software's executable file, I can't "create and upload" because it can't find the uninstallation key.
The problem is that I don't know what to enter in this field, so I'm stuck :cry: .

If someone could help me, that would be fantastic.

Thanks in advance and have a good day ;) .

Hello,

For *.exe files, there's no choice but to install the software to determine the uninstallation key; the "Create and Upload" function is only available for *.msi files.

Okay, so I installed the software and retrieved the uninstallation key from the registry. I added it to the setup.py file.

But how do I add the software to the library?

The best thing to do is to look at the documentation https://www.wapt.fr/fr/doc/wapt-create- ... index.html

If anything is unclear, you can open a specific thread.
