Hi,
I am using wix installer for one of my product and want to implement something
in which I have a screen having a combo box. What I want to do is that on
selection of an item in the combo box another control on the same screen should
be displayed or hidden. How can I achieve that?
To be cle
Actually, let me back up a second.
The whole reason I created this question is that the RemoveExistingProducts
action is just not working. The "upgrade" succeeds, but it leaves multiple
entries in the Add/Remove Programs CP.
I went thru literally dozens of attempts with different settings for
Upg
That is interesting. However I did not use the cleanup tool on that machine
until I had the problem. Next time I will monitor the component count
closely and as soon as the problem occurs I will come back here with the
registry entries.

That requires a bootstrapper that knows something about Windows Installer.
Even for minor changes a Major Upgrade is often the simplest option. If you
are trying to minimize the changes during upgrades, consider a Major Upgrade
with late scheduling of RemoveExistingProducts.

Hi,
I have built an MSI using WIX. I'm trying to create a log for the installer
where I can log User-friendly messages instead of verbose logging by enabling a
property. I have seen couple of articles on Session. Log() but seems it can't
fulfill my requirement. I don't see there is a no mechanis

I haven't used LoadUserProfile in installations because it wreaks havoc with
roaming profiles (which some enterprises use), so I haven't personally had a
need for that privilege. I do know that some privileges where enabled by
default on earlier OSs and still present yet disabled on newer ones, so
I just walked through the code and figured out a way to do it with a
preprocessor extension, but I didn't come up with a way to do it directly.
The WiX preprocessor was inspired by the C/C++ preprocessor, but WiX doesn't
include tokenization which is how this is performed in C's preprocessor.

resources, they're just there as a convenience to help the customer
get a few services up and running.

Installing your program to "Program Files (x86)" isn't about looking good or
being grown up. It just means that you have a 32-bit program. There is
nothing wrong with that. For example, all of the WiX toolset installs to
"Program Files (x86)" as does almost all of Visual Studio.
Nothing wrong with
