What do you mean, unneeded code for installing Windows services? What if the
service is written in .net? Then the code is "needed".

d writable. Program Files requires elevation to be
placed there. If you go to Program Files you don't have to worry about your
application being tampered with but an App Data install can happen without
elevation.
The certificate comment doesn't make sense to me.

Hello all,
I'm just wondering this since I have a program that installs to app data by
default rather than program files, and it's developer says that the change of
default directory has to do with special permissions needed. I mean, what is
the point of the app data folder anyway? I'd never un
Remember that PowerShell 3 can call batch files as well; my preference since
batch technology is so outdated.

Hi guys,
Since I am just learning to be a .NET C# programmer, can somebody shed light on
why using WiX over something like Inno would be more complicated and why
programmers are often less compelled to use WiX? I'm asking this because my
friend has got a project he's working on where the main p

- not as pretty but it is a standard Windows UI so should work with your screen
reader. If you would like a simple install to check I can upload some samples.

http://wix.sourceforge.net/manual-wix3/wixstdba_intro.htm. From what I remember
of screen readers (admittedly based on work I did 20 years ago) I think they
should be compatible.

Seems pretty interesting; I like that idea actually. I plan to join the open
source community in a very short time, and I mean everything I do will be based
on WiX, at least for setup. Everyone else can go away; we don't need
commercial installation programs anymore.
