Electron-builder: NSIS Installer, make entry into registry (windows)

[itsmebhavin]

• Version: 19.24.1

• Target: 2.15.0

I have NSIS Installer building from electron-builder and works fine. I can see App_Guid registry key as well. Now i have to make an entry into windows registry under certain path (e.g. HKLM/WOWXXX/CRDL/{APP_NAME} when installing installer.

How can I tweak the installer/build script to create registry entry when we install it?
Appreciate help.

Current installer.nsh

 !macro preInit
    SetRegView 64
    WriteRegExpandStr HKLM "${INSTALL_REGISTRY_KEY}" InstallLocation "C:\ProgramData\CRDL\UFP"
    WriteRegExpandStr HKCU "${INSTALL_REGISTRY_KEY}" InstallLocation "C:\ProgramData\CRDL\UFP"
    SetRegView 32
    WriteRegExpandStr HKLM "${INSTALL_REGISTRY_KEY}" InstallLocation "C:\ProgramData\CRDL\UFP"
    WriteRegExpandStr HKCU "${INSTALL_REGISTRY_KEY}" InstallLocation "C:\ProgramData\CRDL\UFP"
 !macroend

This is my intaller.nsh
_!macro customInstall
SetRegView 64
WriteRegStr HKCR "cloud" "" "URL:yunpan"
WriteRegStr HKCR "cloud" "URL Protocol" ""
WriteRegStr HKCR "cloudshell" "" ""
WriteRegStr HKCR "cloudshell\open" "" ""
WriteRegStr HKCR "cloudshell\open\command" "" '"$INSTDIR\cloud_app.exe" "%1"'
SetRegView 32
WriteRegStr HKCR "cloud" "" "URL:yunpan"
WriteRegStr HKCR "cloud" "URL Protocol" ""
WriteRegStr HKCR "cloudshell" "" ""
WriteRegStr HKCR "cloudshell\open" "" ""
WriteRegStr HKCR "cloudshell\open\command" "" '"$INSTDIR\cloud_app.exe" "%1"'
!macroend
!macro customUnInstall
DeleteRegKey HKCR "cloud"
!macroend_
It resgists a URL Protocol called cloud when installing the app.
