8292	Adding DisplayVersion to registry for WIndows installation	kmm141@…	Greg Couch	"{{{
Hello,

We automate the installation of various software packages to our labs and use two Windows registry keys under HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall which are typically set for Windows software packages, to determine that a software package is installed.  The ChimeraX installer sets DisplayName, which is the one key/value we look at but the installer does not set DisplayVersion.  Can you modify the installer to include setting the DisplayVersion?  For instance, with ChimeraX 1.5, which I currently have installed, DisplayVersion should be set to 1.5.  As it stands now, I can only detect through the Windows registry that a version of ChimeraX is installed by the presence of the DisplayName setting, but not what version is installed.

Thanks,
Kevin
