  • In WEBDEV: HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\PC SOFT\WebDev\29.0\TestMode\Project name
  • In WINDEV Mobile: HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\PC SOFT\WINDEV Mobile\29.0\TestMode\Project name
At runtime (from an executable), this path has the following format:
  • HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\APPLICATIONS_WINDEV\Executable name: if no company name and no version were specified when creating the executable.
  • HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Company Name\Executable name: if a company name was specified when creating the executable (with no version number).
