In Vista, that link is populated from ARPURLINFOABOUT. ARPHELPLINK is called "Help Link" on that OS. -----Original Message----- From: little.forest [mailto:little.for...@ymail.com] Sent: Tuesday, September 22, 2009 5:07 PM To: General discussion for Windows Installer XML toolset. Subject: Re: [WiX-users] ARP support info in Vista: not shown Hi Palbinder, Thanks for your reply. I'm not quite sure you're asking me to double check "Programs & Features", or you're having the same problem and asking experts in the forum? Anyways, I did double checked the "Programs & Features", I did enable the "Support Link" field. It's empty in the field. However, in XP and Windows 7, we do have the company URL displayed correctly. Does anybody know what the problem is? Thanks. ________________________________ From: Pally Sandher <pally.sand...@iesve.com> To: General discussion for Windows Installer XML toolset. <wix-users@lists.sourceforge.net> Sent: Tuesday, September 22, 2009 3:53:12 AM Subject: Re: [WiX-users] ARP support info in Vista: not shown Vista doesn't support it? You're not viewing the "Programs & Features" Control panel in the right view mode to see it (default view mode may not show it)? It's a bug in Vista which is fixed in Windows 7?

We have this code to show support url in ARP: <Property Id="ARPHELPLINK"><![CDATA[$(var.COMPANY_URL)]]></Property> In XP and Windows 7, it works - we can see the url when checking ARP. But in Vista, the support info url field is empty. In the log of the Vista installation, the ARPHELPLINK is setup: Property(C): ARPHELPLINK = http://www.thecompany.com What's the problem here?
