Just to clarify: It was the user who pinned our shortcut to the
taskbar. And it is the user who complains after installing the upgrade
to our application because that pinned shortcut ends up as
half-removed.
I guess the reason for the disappearing pinned shortcut is because my
installers only do M

WixStdBA lets you customize the look and feel (via a custom theme) but
not behavior. There's no way to add a new button and have it do
something; WixStdBA isn't extensible today.

You might check to see that the WixTasks.dll is updated correctly. Seems
like there is a mismatch there. If it is good, try using the fuslogvw to
see why the assembly is not able to load.

You need more than VS2010. You need a version of the Winows SDK, the HTML
Help Compiler, some VS SDKs and correct version of NAnt. Simplifying that
complexity is a goal of WiX v3.7.

AFAIK (from Raymond Chen) pinning is user action in Windows . Windows does
not provide programmatic access to it (to prevent bad programs from
pinning/unpinning all kinds of stuff to user's start bar).

That looks like a message box from a custom action. It's vaguely possible
it's coming from a WiX CA, but either way, you'll need to get a verbose log
of the install to see where it's coming from.

Hello
I am new to wix technology. I am creating an installer. I used
heat.ext to harvest my directories and to generate wxs file with -ag option
to get all my components generated with guid="*" . I want to automate the
process. We do daily builds, and we will release software to customer
In my case, the shortcuts are merely informative so an administrator can
know where the website is.
So what is the dependency inside the custom action code? How would one
go about writing an appsearch to detect the missing resource scenario that
causes the CA to throw an error?
I haven't
It is more complicated than just Server Core. In Windows Server 2012 full
install you still gave the ability to disable GUI features, on which case
Internet shortcuts (and any other installer feature that requires full GUI)
will fail.
I do not believe that checks for such OS capabilities should
Hey,
Not sure if this is a really silly question but how to I build wix using the
3.6 toolset and VS2010, Ive been trying but to no success. I would like to
build this as my custom action projects are throwing errors that files don't
exist etc. Can anyone shed any light?
Thanks

I later tested on a full SKU of 8 and it worked. If I took out the shortcuts,
the install succeeded and my clients application worked.
I probably can put conditions on the component that references the shortcut,
but should I have to? It seems like the extensions costing pattern should

So where can I find WIX's own installer? I read through the NAnt build
and I can see where it makes a zip file, but I didn't see it calling WiX to
generate the setup files
Thanks!

I have a similar issue as David below. I install my product (with
announced shortcut), run my app, pin its icon, and finally I install a
newer version of my product. The result is a ghost shortcut (generic
icon pointing nowhere) and a confused user.
Any pointers/suggestions would be most welcome.

You can do this with the MsiSetProperty() function.

Hi,
I'm trying to get a bootstrapper building on a teambuild server but whatever I
do, I get an error. Our wix binaries are checked in, at the build server wix is
not installed, but it made no difference when I tried to install it. Hope
someone here has an idea.
Best Regards
Ralph
