I am rebuilding my add-on (and installer) for AC 18 & 19. The installer looks in the registry for "HKCU\\Software\GRAPHISOFT\ArchiCAD-64 18.0.0 INT R1\Add-On Manager" for the "Actual Path" key and uses its value for where to install the add-on.

But the "Add-On Manager" key does not always exist. It looks like its created the first time the Add-On manager is run. Is there another place where we can get the directory? Otherwise we will have to tell users to run the add-on manager before installing any add-ons which seems crude.

Your suggestions are appreciated.

Thanks


Hi Les,

Well, you are more or less out of options. You can try to take the "Last Started Path", and append Add-Ons to it, but that'll only work in English-speaking territories.

Best, Akos
