wix3.6

问题 I am using wix setup to install some package. When I install it, it appears in "Programs and Features" in control panel. It is visible to some users not all, and they can uninstall it as well. Problem is when the other user who can not see what I installed in control panel, when he installs something I can't see it. I can install the same package again and it won't complain that it already exists. 回答1: MSI packages are installed per-user or per-machine. Only per-machine products are

Any help? 回答1: WixStdBA

问题 I swapped to Wix 3.6 from the Microsoft Installer that was packaged with VS 2010. I am trying to release a seamless upgrade to our users by using the <MajorUpgrade/> Tag, however I have one feature that I do not want to be un-installed while performing this major upgrade.

问题 I am preparing installation packages for a plugin which replace some files of other application. I need make a backup of that files, so I prepared CustomAction which will do that. How can I pass as argument to my custom action locations of all files which will be copied during installation? Do I need to make that list manually? 回答1: Instead of creating a custom action, why not use the WiX CopyFile element to back up those files. 回答2: You can pass parameters to custom actions by setting

问题 I am fairly new to WiX so may be I am asking something very straight forward but I couldn't find much help googling it. I want to perform 2 customActions, say, ca1 and ca2, where execution of ca2 depends on outcome of ca1, something like below: if ( ca1 == SUCCESS ) { Perform ca2 } So ca2 should only be executed if my ca1 returns success (doesnt fails).

问题 I made a Wix project that attemps to install a simple .txt example file. But, as a prerequisite, I want to uninstall a previous application. To do so, I know msiexec allows you to uninstall a product by simply writing: msiexec /x {PRODUCT_CODE} on a command line. Fortunately, I know this PRODUCT_CODE , so I tried to create a CustomAction to uninstall that product before the installation starts, like this: <CustomAction Id="PropertyAssign" Property="SilentLaunch" Value="msiexec.exe /x

问题 My project needs to have the ability to install 2 versions or more simultaneously. as far as i can find, the solution i have found is changing the upgrade code for each build of the installer. however i want to do this automatically. in regular GUID i just use "*" but this won't work for upgradecode. is there a way to generate new upgradecode in every wix prebuild or any other solution? <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?> <Wix xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/wix/2006/wi" xmlns:util=
