问题 With Windows Installer 4.5, there was a new table added for MsiEmbeddedChainer Table. This table was supposed to allow multiple-package installation. WiX added support for the table by creating the EmbeddedChainer element. I've read the wiki, but are there any examples on how to use the element?

问题 We are using WiX for our windows installation. We were supporting major upgrade without any issues until recently. I was asked to change the shortcut name as we changed our product name. So i changed it. After a major upgrade, 2 shortcuts are being displayed instead of one. The beauty is while we are installing all the feature migrated in same machine ,it deleted the old shortcut properly it seems. But when we are installing one of the features (webserver feature ) in (webserver) machine, 2

问题 I'm using Wix 3.5 to build a MSI installer. I want to know if there is any way to hide some options from the "Features Custom Setup dialog" (in which you select from the Feature tree what to install).

问题 I am working on an installer (MSI, Wix) for MVVM Light and have an issue. I need to run devenv.exe /setup on install and on uninstall to add/remove templates to the New Project menu.
