No, my bootstrapper is an EXE, not MSI. If you call it directly it will
create the correct MSI and then launch it. You can also call it with
"extract32" or "extract64", which will just extract the correct MSI and you
can do whatever you want with it.
The EXE does other things as well, like calculat
shared cab. Then
with some database voodoo from msi.dll I embed the shared cab into the MSI
and change the Cabinet field in the Media table to start with #. This marks
it as internal.
Thanks for your help

I think you can edit the registry (via custom action or another way) to

I don't know what is the best way to achieve this, or if there won't be

I am using latest wix 3.5 with vs.2010 rc.
I want to create bootstrap for .net 4 but can't figure out how to do it.
I found some blog samples how to edit wixproj in order to create .net 3.5

I have win sdk 6.0 and latest win 7 sdk and configured paths proper
virtual directories, 1 aspnet_client directory and
1 _vti_pvt directory.
Is this a bug or am i doing something wrong?
