Situation
Using System Requirements to check the (Default) value of a registry key. If this value is not set (i.e., in regedit it shows as "(value
not set)" the test fails.
For example, to check that the (Default) value for HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Classes\.doc is not Word.Document.8, then:
Create a bundle, set requirements to "Registry Key Value", HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Classes\.doc, leave the value name blank (to indicate the "(Default)" value), set "<>", "String Type", and Word.Document.8.
If there's any value (except Word.Document.8) in the "(Default)" value, the test passes. If the value is unset, (i.e., in regedit it shows as "(value not set)" the test fails.
