The Set Registry Values action sets or creates a list of registry values within a single key. When adding values to a registry key that is being created within the same update, the Create Registry Key action must precede the Set Registry Values action.
To use this action, you select the registry hive and then provide a path to the key that contains the values that will be set. This key must already exist. Then provide an entry for each value that will be set. For each entry, set the Name, value type and the value to place.
