Is it possible that the part of the application you want to heal is in a different feature than the part that the shortcut points to?
When your program launches, it can enumerate the features and heal all the ones it wants to use, if that completes your picture. It requires either having your application know what features you expect to have in your MSI, or having it discover and decide what to do with each one that exists there. -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of John Lalande Sent: Monday, August 25, 2008 12:26 PM To: wix-users@lists.sourceforge.net Subject: [WiX-users] self-healing not working Is it not enough to create the application shortcut as advertised to enable self-healing? I have Lotus Notes plug-in that is getting removed when Notes gets uninstalled, but I would like my application to restore the plug-in DLL using the self-healing mechanism. I suspect the reason it isn't working is that the path for the plug-in isn't discovered until install time. The path to the Notes installation folder is set by a custom action. Is there a workaround for this?
