Remarks
The regpkg.exe tool searches for these attributes on a package class to identify custom replacement tokens when generating registry scripts for the Microsoft Installer. Possible token names vary, but regpkg.exe supports the following tokens:
$ComponentPath : the path to the component.
SystemFolder : the path to the OS system folder (%systemroot%\system32)
For more information, see Registering VSPackages (C#).
