Dear Alfrqan,
I'm not quite sure to follow the exact sequence where you read and then you need to update that file.
Anyway, you could make a temporary copy of it and then replace the original file once the installation is completed.
Regards

- I think there must be close function after reading.
- I think Installaware should support UCS 16.since it is using very old unicode currently...
+ -Installaware is not able to replace files if exist currently in installaware 15 while on Installaware 9 it is fine_please check this
-IF IT is possible to add check if registry key exists would be good as well

Dear Alfrqan,
I think there must be close function after reading.
It is not necessary, IA does all the required operations automatically.
I think Installaware should support UCS 16.since it is using very old unicode currently...
I still don't understand what do you mean with UCS 16. Maybe UTF-16?
If true, this is not possible with earlier IA versions that do not support UNICODE.
-Installaware is not able to replace files if exist currently in installaware 15 while on Installaware 9 it is fine_please check this
...Please try to clarify.
-IF IT is possible to add check if registry key exists would be good as well
It is already available... use "Check Registry" command.
