wix3.7

I have a WiX Burn custom installer using ManagedBootstrapperApplicationHost. After installing one of the prerequisite Microsoft Windows Installer 4.5 I forcefully reboot the PC (Windows XP) using: <ExitCode Behavior="forceReboot"/> The Bundle chain looks like this: <Chain> <PackageGroupRef Id="WindowsInstaller45"/> <PackageGroupRef Id="Netfx2Full"/> <PackageGroupRef Id="Netfx4Full"/> <PackageGroupRef Id="CustomPkg"/> <PackageGroupRef Id="SQLExpress"/> </Chain> After it reboots, I want my installation to continue after that, but it actually detects the installation and shows Uninstall option.

I'm using WiX 3.7's Burn/Managed Bootstrapper Application features to create a custom MBA-based installer. For each of the packages in my bundle's chain, when performing a MinorUpdate, I can easily detect which of the package features are already installed to ensure I maintain those feature selections during the upgrade by using these events provided in the WiX base class for the bootstrapper: DetectPackageComplete , DetectMsiFeature , DetectRelatedBundle , DetectRelatedMsiPackage , DetectComplete . However, during a MajorUpgrade, I'm only seeing a way to determine which package(s) are

I have created a WiX Bootstrapper project. When the installation runs, it presents a license agreement. I want to create a bootstrapper without this step as I don't want it to show any license agreement. Is it possible to do it? If yes, how? Assuming that you are using the WiX Standard Bootstrapper Application, your current BootstrapperApplicationRef might look like this: <BootstrapperApplicationRef Id="WixStandardBootstrapperApplication.RtfLicense" /> WixStandardBootstrapperApplication has three variants as explained in the docs . HyperlinkLicense is the simplest. It has a license link on the

I'm writing a dapp for ethereum client for windows. In order to make dapp available for user I have to place specific files in the folder in appdata. So I just should place some files in %appdata%\Parity\Ethereum\dapps\mydappname . But I always get weird errors with WIX, the last one is Error 93 ICE64: The directory dapp is in the user profile but is not listed in the RemoveFile table. I have following myapp.wixproj <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?> <Project ToolsVersion="4.0" DefaultTargets="Build" InitialTargets="EnsureWixToolsetInstalled" xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/developer

I have used wix installer to create an installer for my c# application. Installation happened fine, but I am not able to uninstall the application. I see below the logs MSI (s) (78:AC) [15:32:06:199]: Machine policy value 'Debug' is 0 MSI (s) (78:AC) [15:32:06:199]: ******* RunEngine: ******* Product: C:\wix\Installer\\bin\Debug\MyService-Debug-x86.msi ******* Action: ******* CommandLine: ********** MSI (s) (78:AC) [15:32:06:207]: Machine policy value 'DisableUserInstalls' is 0 MSI (s) (78:AC) [15:32:06:326]: Note: 1: 2203 2: C:\Windows\Installer\inprogressinstallinfo.ipi 3: -2147287038 MSI (s

I have a custom action that adds files to the installation directory. When the program is being uninstalled, another custom action tries to remove those files, so that the installation directory can be deleted. The problem is that my custom uninstallation action runs after the removal of standard install files, so the installation directory is left there, although it's empty. The config looks similar to this: <CustomAction Id="AddFilesAction" BinaryKey="installerActions" DllEntry="AddFiles" Execute="deferred" Return="check" Impersonate="no" /> <CustomAction Id="CleanupAction" BinaryKey=
