Hello, iam playing around with the self repair function of windows installer, but cant get it word like I expect it to work ;-)
What I got so far is: <File Id="_F_0001" Source="pfiles\notepad.exe" Vital="yes" KeyPath="yes"> <Shortcut Id="_F_0001_S" Name="Notepad++" Directory="DesktopFolder" Advertise="yes" WorkingDirectory="INSTALLDIR" Description="Startet Notepad++" /> </File> I added an advertised Shortcut. <DirectoryRef Id="NotepadAppData" DiskId="2"> <Component Id="_C_F_1001" Guid="9bccf92a-c69e-42fa-80f8-0e8a8ace2099"> <RegistryValue Action="write" Root="HKCU" Key="Software\[Manufacturer]\[ProductName]" Name="Config" Value="1" Type="integer" KeyPath="yes" /> <CreateFolder/> <File Id="config.xml" Source="appdata\config.xml" /> <RemoveFolder Id="DeleteNotepadAppData" On="uninstall"/> </Component> </DirectoryRef> A component which installs a file config xml to %appdata%\Notepad++ along with a registry key as key path (ICE91) <ComponentGroup Id="_CG_M_1001"> <ComponentRef Id="_C_F_1001"/> </ComponentGroup> A component group with a reference to above component <Feature Id="UserSettings" Title="Configure User" Level="1"> <ComponentGroupRef Id="_CG_M_1001"/> </Feature> And a feature which should handle the Usersettings. The complete code is much longer it installs notepad++ along with a per-user configuration. The installation and configuration runs very well, but only for the user who installs it. How can I tell windows installer to execute the UserSettings Feature (or repair the component if the registry value is missing) when a user clicks on the Advertised shortcut ? Thank you in advance, Stefan ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ _______________________________________________ WiX-users mailing list WiX-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/wix-users
