I wanted to keep this abstracted and loosely coupled. It's all prototype/play work right now and I don't want to add dependencies to the build box that I can't resolve by just pulling some third party components out of source. I'm sure when the day comes that wix3.msi has all the right

How exactly does repair work? When choosing repair in maintenance mode what does Windows Installer do? Does it go back to the MSI logic and run through it again? Does it remember what was installed the first time and try to duplicate what was done? Here's the scenario: - Install product - unins

It looks like you're copying in all the DTF support files into a subdir as well. I was trying to just use the preinstalled locs. To each their own. It'd be pretty easy to make an msbuild action out of MakeSfxCA since it's all managed code anyway. I'm sure it'll come along soon enough. Chris
