In the past I've found CAB files in the MSI's Binary table, and used Orca to extract the CAB, then used Windows Explorer to get at the contents. But the MSIs produced by the WiX toolset on a project I've inherited don't have a CAB visible anywhere. The binaries are definitely inside the MSI, though --the Wise Installation Studio manages to extract them-- so how do I get at them?
Also, MSIs I've worked with before can be installed in Admin mode (msiexec /a ...) but with these MSIs, there's only a "Finished" dialog, and it took me a while to find that the files had been installed to Y:\ What do I need to do to make Admin installs manageable from a WiX MSI? (I'm still a WiX newb) Thanks (using WiX 2 stable with WixUI.wixlib and WixUI_en-us.wxl) ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by the Moblin Your Move Developer's challenge Build the coolest Linux based applications with Moblin SDK & win great prizes Grand prize is a trip for two to an Open Source event anywhere in the world http://moblin-contest.org/redirect.php?banner_id=100&url=/ _______________________________________________ WiX-users mailing list WiX-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/wix-users
