I'm building an installer using WiX 3.0.2211, and I'm using the  
InstallScopeDialog.wxs to ask the user whether they want a single- 
user or all-users install.  I'm also using the provided WixUI_en- 
us.wxl file for localization, which includes the string:

<String Id="InstallScopeDlgPerUser" Overridable="yes"> 
{\WixUI_Font_Emphasized}Install &amp;just for you ([USERNAME])</String>

My problem is that [USERNAME] seems to be expanded at build (candle/ 
light) time rather than at runtime, so that people running the  
installer see _my_ user name rather than their own.

Any suggestions on how I might fix this?  Is there some kind of  
quoting that would get the property to expand at the right time?


Thanks,
