Solved What is a DeploymentFlag?

[wither 3]

I noticed in the registry that there are a number of entries called DeploymentFlags. I wonder what they are. Surprisingly, a search of the internet found nothing on them.

Where about are they listed? Path?

This is just one example of many-

HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Installer\Products\00002109B10090400000000000F01FEC

In the registry, just search on deployment.

Deployment Flags is related to how that application was installed. For example I deployed Google Chrome to this machine by group policy and the deployment flag is 1. When I look at Microsoft Security Essentials the deployment flag is 3 because I locally installed it.

You can also find the locale ID for each software which determines the language for that application. More locale ID's below if you want to change them at all.

Locale IDs Assigned by Microsoft

Deployed via group policy:



Deployed by local install:
