Lock a Registry key
Is there any way to lock a registry value from being changed. In my script Im updating the value but when i launch the application it changes the value back to its original form.

Change permissions on the parent key, though you can't for the reg entry itself. Remove rights for users/administrators groups based on your needs. - dandirk 11 years ago

This might blow your mind a bit, took me a bit to get my head around it. Thats if you want to do it natively in MSI.
