[WiX-users] .NET Install causes Windows Error when running program.

I have created a WiX install of a .NET program and when it is run I get a Microsoft Windows Error (the one that wants to send information to Microsoft). If I just xcopy the files to the destination computer, my application runs fine. I checked that all the files exist and are the correct version.

[WiX-users] Uninstall only works in the default path

I have a weird bug. When installing to the default path, uninstall works correctly. When installing to any other path, uninstall succeeds (that is to say there are no errors) but it forgets to remove the files. Even if I have a bug in my xml, it seems there must be a bug in WIX as well, since

Re: [WiX-users] .NET Installer class and Wix/Msi interaction.

AFAIK there's no difference between managed and unmanaged performance counters. For those of us who were doing this before .NET, the way I've always done this (outside Wix) is with the lodctr utility or equivalent, the LoadPerfCounterTextStrings API. All you need to do is figure out what the requir
