[WiX-users] Hiding/showing feature tree based on property

We have an installer that is going to have 2 main features, but one of them will be mainly for developers, so I'm disabling it by default by setting the install level to a very high value, but since only 1 feature will be installed by default, I'm looking for a way to bypass the feature tree, bu

[WiX-users] heat and xslt transform to keep only pdb files

I'm using heat to try and harvest a directory of all the pdb files. I know that there is an option for heat to look into the vcproj files to get them, but I may need to expand this in the future to deal with other file types as well, such as linker map files, and the like. What I've got so far

I'm looking at how to set the owner of a registry key (or hierarchy of registry keys) created by our installer. At the moment they get created with an owner of "SYSTEM", and I need to set it to the local admin account. We're currently using something like this: So, just for clarificat

[WiX-users] Burn bootstrapper administrator mode log file bug

I'm getting a strange bug where if I run a bootstrapper created with burn from an administrator command line prompt AND specify a log file, then the bootstrapper will hang before even opening up the UI. It's strange, running without a log file works fine from the administrator command line prom
