Every component has a directory and if you specify the component itself as the keypath, yes, that directory becomes the keypath. The downside to directory keypaths is that as long as they exist, they won't trigger a component to be installed during a repair or patch. Also, WiX automatically adds CreateFolder rows if the component is the keypath, which is what's causing the message from Pyro. I'm not aware of a solution. It's always best to have a versioned file as keypath if you can arrange it. -- sig://boB http://joyofsetup.com/ ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ This SF.Net email is sponsored by the Verizon Developer Community Take advantage of Verizon's best-in-class app development support A streamlined, 14 day to market process makes app distribution fast and easy Join now and get one step closer to millions of Verizon customers http://p.sf.net/sfu/verizon-dev2dev _______________________________________________ WiX-users mailing list WiX-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/wix-users
