I know that this check will work to see if the default value exists:

<check type="registry" condition="exists"
path="HKCR\lnkfile\shellex\IconHandler" />


If you really need your check to trigger on the exact value, then I would
try this:

<check type="registry" condition="equals"
path="HKCR\lnkfile\shellex\IconHandler"
value="{00021401-0000-0000-C000-000000000046}" />


I'm not sure if it will work, but you should be able to test it pretty
easily.


Cheers,

Troy
