That error means that a component with the guid "GUID-Of-Class" in your example
below was not found in the application after registering the assembly. What
happens if you remove the ComPlusComponent element, does a component with that
guid show up?

Subject: [WiX-users] ComPlus Install Help : Error 0x80070490: Failed to find
component object
I am receiving this error "ComPlusInstallExecute: Error 0x80070490: Failed to
find component object" in the MSI log when running the installer.
If I remove the "ComPlusAssembly" element and children, the ComApplication is
created properly.
I am not sure what to make of the error message.
Here is my fragment
