Hi
I
have been trying unsuccessfully to launch a pdf at the end of an installation.
I can get an executable running using a CustomAction no problem. However for a
pdf I had read that I could use the Quiet Execution method and call start like

[WiX-users] Set Installdir
Hello,
i have to set the Installdir directory depending on a registry value. Of
course the user can overwrite this default setting in the UI.
So i read the path from the registry in a property and assign this
property to the installdir property with a custom action. My problem is

That sounds like a good release to push to SourceForge.
Could you notify this list when it becomes available?

Bob,
Thanks a bunch. I altered the test scenario to test what you said and
reference counting did work as I had originally thought it
did. I was unaware that the mechanism had changed along the way (whether that
be since MSI infant or sometime as MSI evolved).
Thanks for the input as this fur

It wouldn't work -- you need to put it in both the UI and execute
sequences. Or, don't use a custom action at all. If you use the same

Yes. Exactly. And when Rob first enlightened me I had flash backs of all the
files over the past 10 years that I have distributed
that have been whacking up everyone's box. It wasn't until you made your

Hi Peter,
Try using Target=[!MyProg.exe.MSM_GUID_HERE] or
Target=[#MyProg.exe.MSM_GUID_HERE]
I would recommend placing the shorcut in the merge file if possible to
avoid any GUID changes down the road.

Standard directories are a little bit different. The way
they work is you add a GUID to them everywhere. You also need to make
sure the WindowsFolder is listed in your Directory table for your Merge Module
(which I think is probably the root of your bug). Then, during the merge

My mistake, when I checked again it does resolve to an
empty string. So this sounds like a bug to me.

I'll try to remember - it should just be next week's release assuming
everything happens properly. The only risk is that I also made some
unrelated changes which touch all the file formats (wixobj, wixlib, wixout)
that have a higher potential than usual for regressing. I did a ton of
testing but
No - but if you'd be interested in adding custom actions, I'm sure it would
be a great addition to pubca.
One interesting aspect about this for Vista is that most games will install
to per-machine locations which will require admin privileges whereas most
children accessing a computer should not b
Did you see Rob’s email about adding WindowsFolder to the main
installation? I think this might be the needed change. If not, you’ll want to
go through your custom action table in the final MSI file and look to see how
the guided folder is getting set.
