[WiX-users] illegal MsiFileHash entries

I'm using WiX 3.0.5419.0 to make a merge module, and my INF files (and only the INFs, no other files) are getting entries put in the MsiFileHash table. Candle and light are not complaining when they make the MSM, but when I use the merge module in an MSI, light correctly says light.exe : error

[WiX-users] Sequence Numbers

I googled around, and I understand what the warning means, however, I do not see where it is coming from in my Wix projects. Could someone point me in the right direction as to locating what is causing the ICE82 Warning? Also, has anyone corrected the Office PIA warning? We are using the Visua

Re: [WiX-users] UAC issue

..and remember that MSI installs don't violate security. You may be thinking that there is a setting that allows somebody with non-admin privileges to do an install that writes to restricted locations. Are you writing to the registry with custom actions are or they defined in WiX? Phil Wilson

Re: [WiX-users] Can WiX do this for me?

The reason I ask is that elevated custom actions run with the system account and that doesn't have network privileges. Validation might be tricky. Apart from that, you're basically using an Upgrade element to detect the prior version and taking a dialog path based on that. Phil Wilson -O

Hi, I see from a previous mail (http://n2.nabble.com/Registry-Permissions-td2939332.html#a2939332) that for some reason only file system permissions are allowed to be inherited, is there some reason for this as I could really do with adding an inheritable permission in the registry? Does a
