I would tend to use my build script (Nant, MSBuild, etc) to copy the desired files into a location on the output folder. If you must use WiX for this I'm not sure of a way, but I'd probably explore the <ExternalFile> element first to see if it might do the trick. Others might have different thoughts.

Subject: [WiX-users] Adding files to output media To all, I have what I think is a simple problem but I am not finding a way to accomplish it. I want to add some batch files to the output media that is created when WiX compiles so they are available in a folder or even the root of the output. The File element appears to be only for adding files to the a MSI that are going to be deployed to a target system. Is there an element or some other means of adding files to the output that would be, for example, written to a CDROM but not be files to include on the target platform?
