Subject: Re: [WiX-users] Error 0x800706d9: failed to get firewall profile
Looking through the code, I'm seeing that ExitOnFailure is being
called in firewall.cpp/GetFirewallProfile, the line that contains:
hr = pfwPolicy->get_CurrentProfile(ppfwProfile);
ExitOnFailure(hr, "failed to get current profile");
So, any tips on how I get ExitOnFailure to *not* display a messagebox
to the user when this fails?
Thanks!
Wendell
