After-merge Checklist:

Test Plan:

If using Omaha stub:

  1. Run Windows installer with a refcode embedded in the filename (i.e. BraveBrowserSetup-BRV002.exe)
  2. After installation, access the local state page and search from "promo_code"
  3. Ensure the promo code matches the one embedded in the filename

If using installer from CI build, see @bsclifton 's comment below

Steps I ran to test this:

  1. Grab code and build it
git fetch origin && git checkout -b windows-installer-promo-fix --track origin/windows-installer-promo-fix
npm run sync && npm run build
npm run create_dist
  1. Once that finished, I created a registry entry:
Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\BraveSoftware\Promo]
"StubInstallerPath"="C:\\bb2\\src\\out\\Component\\BraveBrowserSetup-BSC007.exe"

This simulates the entry written by Omaha (see here for more info)

  1. Went into src/out/Component directory and double clicked brave_installer.exe to manually run the mini installer
  2. This created a profile directory for me at C:\Users\brian\AppData\local\BraveSoftware\Brave-Browser-Development\User Data which had the promoCode file
  3. Opened promoCode file and verified it has BSC007

  • launched BraveBrowserStandaloneNightlySetup-BSC007.exe and ensured promoCode was created when installing
    • opened/checked C:\Users\kamil\AppData\Local\BraveSoftware\Brave-Browser-Nightly\User Data\promoCode
Example Example
image image
  • ensured that BSC007 is being listed/mentioned via brave://local-state as per the following:
      "referral": {
         "checked_for_promo_code_file": {
            "metadata": [ "default", "user_modifiable", "extension_modifiable" ],
            "value": false
         },
         "promo_code": {
            "metadata": [ "user_controlled", "user_modifiable", "extension_modifiable" ],
            "value": "BSC007"

I also basically went through the above using both the stub & standalone installers.
