Hi!
I have a WiX bundle executable (using Bundle/Chain/MsiPackage elements) I use
to install 2 different MSI packages.
I already have several MSI properties as Variable elements that are defined in
the bundle and passed along to the MSI packages as MsiProperty elements.
My question now is, how c
Hi Rob,
what about the Patches bundles?
for a patch i have different upgrade code than the main bundle, if it is the
same it will remove the main bundle.
in the new major upgrade bundle i have the upgrade code as the main bundle

A Bundle is not processed by msiexec.exe and does not have a "Property" in
the MSI sense of the term. A Burn Bundle may have Burn "variables", which
are a slightly different concept than a "Property".
You cannot "set" the variable in the Bundle (wxs authoring), but you can
make it bal:Overridable
The symptoms that you have shared, (installs on a clean system, but when the
"old" driver is present, the "new" driver is added to the driver store, but
the class installer is not invoked by the PNP manager) are commonly due to
the fact that the "new" driver has a lower driver rank than the "old"

Hey WiX team,
Can we perhaps put a compiler warning in if a bindpath isn't used? And perhaps
also add a build error when a user tries to use pure wix patching method
without a bindpath? Would be thrown during the light.exe phase when outputting
a wixmsp file.
Thoughts?

Hey Bob,
I had posted this question earlier but I guess it got lost in the piles of
emails going out to your adoring fans ;)
In my torch command I have -xi -xo set, and I'm still getting a cab file with a
.wixmst extension? How do I force this to be the expected XML file? What
causes the con
I may be speaking out of turn, but from what I have read, the XML is output
if the change does not require changing any file objects. If the patch
deploys files then they are also added to a cab. (I hope this is correct
and I apologize if I have mislead anyone.)

Quick question: How to eliminate the cancel button from the UI dialog that
shows when uninstall? I am using WiXUI_FeatureTree and also referencing
WiXUI_Common. I would modify the existing dialog but my problem is that I don't
know which dialog to modify. I thought it was the ErrorDlg because I
I should have tested more before I did the above post. The above change does
not work, so I will go back and study how to do RemotePayload some more.
Thanks.

Bind paths are a great idea but penalizing the other methods just seems
mean. :)

Hi Bob,
There seems to be a lot of great information here. Can you be more specific and
point me to a page that addresses my issue please?
Best,

I can agree with the first, but the second scenario will simply result in a
useless patch if the user doesn't have bindpaths and tried to do pure wix
patching. I've tried with the simplest scenarios and pyro creates warnings
stating that each transform applied has not differences.

Speaking of evil things... might I make a suggestion that two files be output?
TransformX.wixmst (XML file)
TransformX.wixmst.cab (paired cab file)
This would be super ideal and would help keep separation of concerns for each
file sane as well.
Or would that break too much stuff? Can I add a
Also, I have been looking at this file in more detail.
The file itself is encoded with ANSI, but the XML header tag states that the
XML is in UTF-8. Is this intentional?
