Was it a warning window, or a hard error? Did you use the "Advanced" installation button?
As far as I know, if you select "Advanced" you can disable the VS 2005 integration and you don't have to have the project aggregator MSI installed to get VS 2008 integration. -----Original Message----- From: Lynda Li [mailto:lyndali...@gmail.com] Sent: Monday, January 25, 2010 1:56 PM To: General discussion for Windows Installer XML toolset. Subject: Re: [WiX-users] cannot install wix3.0.5419.0x64 with visual studio 2008 when I have both vs 2005 and vs 2008 Thank you! I did not install project aggregator MSI since it is said that visual studio 2008 does not need project aggregator MSI. I don't want to use visual studio 2005, I want to install wix on visual studio 2008.
