Subject: [WiX-users] Does Burn allow
Hello,
Does Burn allow minor upgrades of MsiPackages? Are there some attributes that
can be set to achieve that? Or do I have to write custom code that makes the
bootstrapper think that the package to be upgraded is not yet there?
Best regards

Assuming you are relatively sure that the app did install (for example
because it was a fresh install on a clean system and you can see that files
were actually installed) make sure you didn't flip something that made your
product a system component, ARPSYSTEMCOMPONENT set to 1 will hide the
entry.
Hi,
1) With your app not* *installed, do you have an entry here with same GUID
as your app?
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Installer\UpgradeCodes
2) After having your app installed, can you find your app here (maybe
different GUID - from your previous 'guid=*' package
It was working since yesterday and suddenly when I tested today the newly
installed app does not appear in the above mentioned list. I don't know what
I've changed except that I set Product ID replacing the asterisk with a
hardcoded GUID.
Please advice. Thank you

If the payloads weren't laid out correctly, shouldn't selecting the language
explicitly via -lang fail as well (as I wrote, this works perfectly)?
Since the official WiX documentation describes localizing the standard
bootstrapper application rather sparsely, the layout may be indeed not correct
Or maybe your Payloads in the BootstrapperApplication are not laid out
correctly?

Just for curiosity, I set the title string resource:

[SystemLanguageID]
It says "Name 1031 1031", however the GUI is still in English. So WiX seems to

No, unfortunately, that's a weakness in the current documentation. We don't

We renamed "BaseInputPath" to "BindInputPath" in WiX v3.6 (kept backwards
