Hi Simon,

What system are you using to generate MSIs? Marc (CC'd) has a
patch for WIX that adds support for generating ARM64 MSIs.

Are you wrapping two arch-specific MSIs in an EXE, or doing one
mixed MSI? Two MSIs will be very simple to add ARM64 to, while
one mixed MSI will be harder.

As for tapinstall, a standalone tapinstall under VS2017 will work
perfectly with what I'm building since the EWDK consumes the
vcxproj and sln files directly.

In other news, I should have a groundwork/cleanup PR ready today! 

Thanks,
Jon

I have already started working on it. I am writing a tapinstall.exe utility
from scratch. I am using Visual Studio 2017 for building, so this is pretty
much inline with what Jon is using. Otherwise, the utility will be quite
simple to build using a Makefile approach too, so it could use existing TAP
driver build system as well.

Regards,
Simon
