Uninstall Display Name

Post by PAFPDF »

After installing the printer driver with PDFX4SA_sm.exe, I would like to change the display name of the printer in the list of installed programs (now PDF-XChange 4) to the same name as given by the parameter PName in PDFX4SA_sm.exe

The display name can be found in the registry key HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall\{EA08048C-3823-4DC8-B169-1D5D11FFC19F}_is1\DisplayName

Is {EA08048C-3823-4DC8-B169-1D5D11FFC19F}_is1 fixed or can it vary from installation to installation? Is it safe to use this key hardcoded to change the display name or where can it be found?

Best Regards

Hi PAFPDF,
Is {EA08048C-3823-4DC8-B169-1D5D11FFC19F}_is1 fixed or can it vary from installation to installation? Is it safe to use this key hardcoded to change the display name or where can it be found?
The uuid {EA08048C-3823-4DC8-B169-1D5D11FFC19F}_is is fixed.

There should be no problem with changing that display name. It refers to the one you see listed in ADD\Remove programs or Programs and Features and is simply a label.

Regards,
Jamie
