I've noticed that the Product Code that you see in the InstallAware dev Environment (I use InstallAware 18) is different than the Product Code shown when I inspect the MSI using Orca.
Is there some algorithm that changes one into the other? I'm just curious.
If I want to search for a product in the registry which code should I use? Does one have precedence over the other?
Which is the "Real" product code?

Re: Which is the "Real" product code?
The product code is the one (...and only) defined in InstallAware. if you want to search for a product in the registry, just use this one.
The other product code (the one you see using Orca) gets randomly generated by the MSI engine.
