I don’t think you can change the icon of the MSI, but if you package the
product in a bootstrapper, you can change the icon of the latter (since it’s a
plain .exe). Various bootstrappers have different ways of specifying icons, I
didn’t see an option in the one with wix 3 (setupbld / setup.exe)
Folks:
I understand how to use the ProgID for some simple cases, such
as this example:

How icons work in Windows Explorer:

Hi,
I have an installer that creates a virtual directory in IIS. I have created
that installer using Wix 2.0.5805.0, which I believe is the latest 2.0 release.
