Re: [WiX-users] Per-User Previlage To Write to Program Files

I believe my question and the issue I was having wasn't explained clear enough. Looking back I was trying to be succinct and missed out on explaining the details of what was happening and what I had tried in order to fix it. To be clear, in the past with the per-user installs I created the user

Re: [WiX-users] Overriding WIXUI_INSTALLDIR

WIXUI_INSTALLDIR expects a property. Generally, it is statically set in the Property Table. Probably what you want is to update the value of the property at [WIXUI_INSTALLDIR]. If it runs before InstallDirDlg, you should be able to just update the value of that property with the path. A more

I have a dialog that runs before InstallDirDlg and uses a remembered property that is to construct the full installation path. A dialog that runs before InstallDirDlg -- One dashboard for servers and applications across Ph

Re: [WiX-users] Per-User Previlage To Write to Program Files

More accurate to say that an admin user gets a UAC prompt to install to the desired location (ProgramFiles), and the limited user just gets directed to the ProgramData folder.without them knowing, as evidenced by this thread. It's the IS attempt to build an install like this: : https://msdn.micr

Re: [WiX-users] Per-User Previlage To Write to Program Files

As I understand this, the original problem wasn't explained at all clearly. The issue is not about a limited user being unable to install to Program Files. The issue is that with the IS per-user installer, the user gets offered a UAC prompt and the installation proceeds if he authenticates corr

Re: [WiX-users] Per-User Previlage To Write to Program Files

Well it asked me for elevation on my system and installed to ProgramFiles. It also doesn't actually TELL you or show you the install destination and there is no browse dialog. So Rob is correct, and it's as I basically said before, it's one of those IS packages that redirects to ProgramData by cal

Re: [WiX-users] R: Extend ProductSearch for working with Burn exe Package

I think there is some confusion. 1) util:ProductSearch works with Burn/Bundle. Whether it will do exactly what you want (as pointed out by Phil) is another matter, but it does work. 2) the standard ProductSearch is desiged to work in the WiX schema and is not suitable for Burn/Bundle. 3) As

Re: [WiX-users] Per-User Previlage To Write to Program Files

Not sure about the internal filters that might be set and I wouldn't know what to look for using Orca to view the .msi file to see what might be allowing me to install to Program Files in a per-user install. I do know it is installing to Program Files and not Program Data. If you are curious an
