Permissions Dialog Boxes for Registry Keys
Permissions Dialog Box
If you are configuring permissions for a folder and you want the permissions to
be applied to all of the folder’s subfolders and files, select this check box.
This check box is available only if the custom InstallShield handling option is
selected for the Locked-Down Permissions setting in the General Information
view. The traditional Windows Installer handling option does not include support
for this behavior.
Tip: For more information on the custom InstallShield handling option and the
traditional Windows Installer handling option, see Securing Files, Folders, and
Registry Keys in a Locked-Down Environment.
The Permissions dialog box lets you configure settings for securing registry keys for end users who run
your product in a locked-down environment. You can assign permissions for a registry key to specific
groups and users. For example, you may assign Read, Write, and Delete permissions for a particular
registry key to the Administrators group, but only Read permissions for all of the users in a different
group.
Depending on what is selected for the Locked-Down Permissions setting in the General Information
view of your project, InstallShield adds permissions data to either the ISLockPermissions table or the
LockPermissions table. To learn more, see Securing Files, Folders, and Registry Keys in a Locked-
Down Environment.
