In test mode, this path has the following format:
  • In WINDEV: HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\PC SOFT\WinDev\30.0\ModeTest\Project name
  • In WEBDEV: HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\PC SOFT\WebDev\30.0\ModeTest\Project name
  • In WINDEV Mobile: HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\PC SOFT\WINDEV Mobile\30.0\ModeTest\Project name
At runtime (from an executable), this path has the following format:
  • HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\APPLICATIONS_WINDEV\Executable name If no company name or version was specified when the executable was created.
  • HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Company name\Executable name If a company name was specified when the executable was created (without version number).
Reminder To create an executable, under the "Project" pane, in the "Generation" group, click on "Generate".
