Get EventGhost.exe Location

[jsonnabend]

Is it possible to find the location of the EventGhost executable using a Python script?

TIA

Here are two possible solutions:

Inside of EventGhost:

Code: Select all

import os
print os.path.abspath("")

Outside of EventGhost:

Code: Select all

import _winreg
try:
    eg_reg = _winreg.OpenKey(
        _winreg.HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE,
        r"SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall\EventGhost_is1"
    )
    EventGhostPath = _winreg.QueryValueEx(eg_reg, "Inno Setup: App Path")[0]
    _winreg.CloseKey(eg_reg)
except:
    EventGhostPath = None
print EventGhostPath

Inside EventGhost you can write

Code: Select all

import sys
print sys.argv

sys.argv[0] will be the path to the executable.
