Bug Description

In order to allow automated discovery of the toolchain location on Windows, could you add the following key to the Windows Registry in your setup packages (the syntax is for NSIS):

!define PRODUCT "GNU Tools for ARM Embedded Processors"
!define INSTALL_LOCATION_KEY "InstallFolder"
WriteRegStr HKLM "SOFTWARE\${PRODUCT}" "${INSTALL_LOCATION_KEY}" "$INSTDIR"

An example of such a NSIS file can be found at https://sourceforge.net/p/gnuarmeclipse/openocd/ci/gnuarmeclipse/tree/gnuarmeclipse/nsis/gnuarmeclipse-openocd.nsi

Thank you,

Liviu
