Manually add an exe to Programs and Features in control panel

Question

I'm currently working on a program written in Microsoft Visual Basic. I made a custom installer for it, however, it does not add anything to the Programs and Features list.

I'm trying to figure out what keys I need to manually edit using regedit, so that way I know what I need to add to the code.

Answer 1

You need to write values under Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall\YourAppnameOrGuid

DisplayName and UninstallString are required, the others are optional.
